Meghan Trainor announces album + tour; shares "Been Like This"

Grammy Award-winning pop superstar Meghan Trainor has announced that she will be releasing her new album, Timeless, on June 14th via Epic Records.

Along with the album announcement, Trainor has released a hook-laden, dance-y new single “Been Like This,” which features T-Pain.

On the new album, Trainor explains, “I cannot believe it has been 10 years since this all started, I have never been more grateful for this life that my incredible Megatronz have gifted me with. This new album and tour are all for them and my beautiful family.”

On working with Trainor, T-Pain shared, “I worked with Meghan’s husband and manager for MONTHS trying to surprise her for her birthday. She’s been a fan of mine for a long time and the feeling is definitely mutual. I think we came together in a way that’s a perfect mesh of styles that will get everybody ready for us to work together again real soon. T-Pain and M-Train, the collab you never knew you wanted but needed.”

Arriving just in time for the 10-year anniversary of her diamond-certified hit “All About That Bass,” Timeless is a celebration of Trainor’s growth as an artist over the last decade. She approaches themes of self-love and empowerment with more confidence than ever before, brought to life through her smart lyricism and signature production.

This fall, Trainor is making her long-awaited return to stages for the Timeless Tour. Produced by Live Nation and kicking off September 3rd at Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati, OH, the 24-show tour includes stops at Madison Square Garden in New York, the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO.

Fellow pop powerhouse Natasha Bedingfield will be joining Meghan as direct support for her NYC, Denver, and Los Angeles dates, and “Lil Boo Thing” crooner, Paul Russell will be direct support for the entirety of the tour. Best friend Chris Olsen and older brother Ryan Trainor will also be joining the tour as special guests, bringing their signature charisma and humor to the stage. Fans will have the opportunity to hear tracks from Timeless along with plenty of classics from her chart-topping catalog.
