The band's tour announcement follows the debut of their most recent single, "Memories" (222 Records/ Interscope Records).  The release of "Memories" marks the first new music from the Los Angeles band since the release of their global anthem "Girls Like You." Produced by Adam Levine and The Monsters & Strangerz and Executive Produced by Jacob "J Kash" Hindlin, "Memories" marks a moment of creative and personal progression for the musicians.

The track is currently holding at peak position #4 on Billboard Hot 100 chart, their 10th Top 5, and their 12th Top 10 this decade; that includes at least one new song sent into the Top 10 each year since 2011.

GLOBAL SUPERSTAR MEGHAN TRAINOR RELEASES TWO NEW TRACKS, NEW SINGLE "LET YOU BE RIGHT" AND "CAN'T DANCE"

THIRD FULL-LENGTH ALBUM ARRIVES SOON
MEGHAN WILL KICK OFF TODAY SHOW SUMMER CONCERT SERIES WITH LIVE PERFORMANCE ON MAY 15

(May 10, 2018 - Los Angeles, CA) - Today, GRAMMY® Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer Meghan Trainor releases not one, but two new songs from her forthcoming third full-length studio album. First up, she shares the sassy and sexy single "Let You Be Right" in addition to another track entitled "Can't Dance."

Get "Let You Be Right" HERE and "Can't Dance" HERE via Epic Records.

Trainor says, "I was going to release just one song today, but I'm too excited so I'm giving you two! LET'S DANCE."

"Let You Be Right" impacts radio beginning June 4. Bright and buoyant production punctuated by funky bass and finger-snaps drives the beat before Trainor serves up a slick and sizzling chant, "I don't wanna fight tonight. I'ma let you be right." From the verses to the hook, it just feels "right" in every way. Meanwhile, "Can't Dance" offers up a once-in-a-lifetime invitation to a "shy boy" in the club as she croons, "Even if you can't dance, just hold my hips." Powered by her seismic delivery and endless charisma, the song is a confident and catchy banger.
These tracks arrive hot on the heels of the album's show-stopping first single "No Excuses," which hit #1 on the US iTunes singles chart and lit up at both Pop and Hot AC radio, where it recently broke into the top 10 and is rising.

Critics immediately adored this anthem of empowerment. People claimed, "With its confident lyrics and 80s tinged-production, 'No Excuses' is an instant day-brightener," while Forbes wrote, "Meghan Trainor has crafted a stellar pop hook, she has returned to the spotlight to begin another era of her already stellar career, and has gifted the world with another pop smash."

With more music and surprises soon, get ready for the Summer of Meghan Trainor.

Grammy-Award winning singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Meghan Trainor emerged with her 2014 breakout single "All About That Bass" and disrupted contemporary music with nostalgic pop beats and powerhouse vocals that delivered a worldwide anthem for female empowerment. Trainor cemented her rising status as one of the most prominent artists in popular music by charting seven multi-platinum singles, releasing two platinum albums, selling out three headline tours, writing multi-platinum hits for top pop and country artists, and receiving countless industry awards and nominations worldwide.  She is one of only five female artists to receive a diamond certification for her hit single "All About That Bass" which shares the RIAA Gold & Platinum Awards top honor with only 15 other singles in history. Earlier this year, Trainor wrapped up her first season as a panelist on FOX's hit singing competition series THE FOUR: Battle for Stardom.

This was Trainor's very first tour, and each date actually sold out well in advance, proving her status as a live phenomenon.
About the THAT BASS TOUR, Billboard claimed, "Trainor stretched her set in ways that felt authentic," while The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "The lifelong performer took advantage of the venue's intimacy while also seizing the opportunity to serve a spectacle." The Chicago Tribune said, "After a year that set the 21-year-old on an unexpected pop star path, Trainor hit the stage in Chicago and showed that she had the verve and talent to justify her rise," The Washington Post added, "Trainor's voice sparkled almost as much as the bejeweled mike she poured it into," and The OC Register claimed, "Her brand of doo-wop and bubble gum pop, infused with bits of funk and hip-hop, coupled with a sassy attitude and lyrics about female empowerment, have quickly made her a star."
As soon as TITLE became available, it vaulted to the top of dozens of charts worldwide. With first-week sales of 237,511 units in total music consumption (albums/singles/streaming), the album ranks as the biggest-selling debut for a female artist's first full-length album in more than five years; and the biggest-selling debut for a solo artist's first full-length album in more than three years. TITLE has dominated iTunes Overall and Pop album charts in the U.S. at #1 since its release on January 13th, with #1 peaks reported from 67 countries worldwide.
Early critical reaction to TITLE was unanimously positive, with Rolling Stone magazine hailing Meghan's "sass and self-empowerment," and People proclaiming "she's an It girl with staying power." The New York Times profiled Meghan with references to Amy Winehouse and Adele; while Entertainment Weekly awarded the TITLE album an A-, declaring "right now, no pop star is better than this 21-year-old singer, songwriter, and producer at playing the sassy best friend."  Billboard summed up, "You can't miss this young artist's skill with melodic and rhythmic hooks…along with her fluid, flexible voice."
"All About That Bass" is a juggernaut in and of itself. Meghan's phenomenal two-time Grammy®-nominated debut single spent eight weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and has been certified 6-times RIAA platinum in the U.S. alone. The song has worked its way into pop culture with numerous cover versions and homages, including NBC's Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (with collective YouTube views of more than 40 million).
Globally, "All About That Bass" has hit #1 in 58 countries, generated more than 10 million downloads, over 275 million streams, and nearly 700 million YouTube views to date.
