Michael Bublé - Higher (2022)

A good three years after his last album, Michael Bublé delights his worldwide fan base in 2022 with the announcement of his new work "Higher", released via Warner Records / Reprise Records and the 11th studio album of the multiple Grammy winner, multiple Juno award winner and worldwide multiplatinum superstar
The first single, "I'll Never Not Love You," shows the Canadian at his best vocally and creatively. The new track was produced by Greg Wells and Bob Rock along with Allen Chang, Jason "Spicy G" Goldman and Sir Paul McCartney

Highlights of the album include a magical duet with Willie Nelson for his song "Crazy," Bublé's soulfully sung interpretation of Sir Paul McCartney's song "My Valentine" (produced by McCartney) and the Bob Dylan classic "Make You Feel My Love," as well as the three tracks newly written by Bublé, which include the first single "I'll Never Not Love You." Bublé's interpretation of the Sam Cooke classic "Bring It On Home To Me," "You're The First, The Last, My Everything" and the lilting "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square" are also absolutely successful. The album concludes with a dramatic and breathtaking version of "Smile" in which Bublé is accompanied by a gospel choir

Bublé comments, "I opened myself up completely this time to try new things. I dug deep, surrounded by some of the greatest musical masterminds we have on this planet - people with gigantic imaginations. Whether I was sitting down with Ryan Tedder and Greg Wells for songwriting sessions, recording three songs in one day with my buddy Bob Rock - along with 40 amazing studio musicians who hadn't made music in 15 months - or just dancing around my home studio in my underwear laughing and crying because a song sounded just right - every moment felt magical. It was as if the universe had conspired to bring me to this exact point after 20 amazing years. I've never been so ecstatic after finishing an album."

"Michael Bublé is a great dance partner," comments Greg Wells. "He gives me a lot of credit, but the real credit goes to him - for having the confidence to work with a new team. He's a phenomenal hitmaker."

Bublé's longtime producer Bob Rock says, "I've never seen Michael so focused and inspired. He had a very specific idea of the album he wanted to make, a clear-cut vision. When we got down to work, he hung in there on every song until it sounded like he heard it in his head."

Many years ago, a then four-year-old Michael Bublé discovered his love of singing at his parents' home in Burnaby, Canada - and has never let go of it since. His self-titled debut album on Reprise Records was released in 2005, followed by a string of multiplatinum and #1 successes, including "Call Me Irresponsible," "Crazy Love," "To Be Loved" and "Christmas." His latest album, "Love" (2018), reached #1 in the U.S. and UK and #6 in Germany, among others. Over the course of his amazing career, Bublé has sold over 75 million albums, his Christmas album continues to be purchased and streamed millions of times ten years after its original release, and his voice is the epitome of Christmas. Bublé has also enjoyed outstanding live success in recent decades, playing sold-out shows in more than 30 countries. His most recent tour, "An Evening With Michael Bublé" (2019 to 2022), was attended by over one million fans around the world. Michael loves field hockey, fantasy football, TikTok and - of course - singing. He is the proud father of Noah, Eli and Vida.
