Hitchin’ A Ride with @ConorMaynard and his new single “Talking About”

CONOR MAYNARD, “Talking About”

It’s quite clear with the arrival of “Talking About” by 22 year old Brighton, England native Conor Maynard that the singer who charmed teens and maybe some of us older types too a few years back with his natural presence and songs like “Can’t Say No” and “Turn Around” is here to stay.  Looking a bit like a young Andy Bell (from Erasure), Conor continues on with the immensely catchy pop/R&B style that attracted all of the interest in the first place, and the video, which finds Conor cruising in cars and trucks with all kinds of folks, is good-natured fun that gets even better in the last minute.  With a good solid push, “Talking About” could end up being one of the Spring’s unexpected radio pleasures.  Conor’s EP of the same name arrives in Canada on April 21 (not sure about the rest of the world).
