Today, multi-platinum selling singer-songwriter, Conan Gray releases “Vodka Cranberry” the second single from his forthcoming album Wishbone arriving August 15 via Republic Records / Universal Music Canada.
“Vodka Cranberry”, written by Conan Gray and produced by Dan Nigro, captures the torture of a prolonged breakup through its exquisite songwriting and vocal performance. The official music video, a continuation of the music video for “This Song”, is directed by Danica Kleinknecht (Mk.Gee) and co-stars Corey Fogelmanis. The music video was shot on Kodak 35mm 500t in his home state of Texas, following the love story of Wilson & Brandon.
Upon release, the album’s lead single “This Song” was received with delight from fans and critics alike. RollingStone called the release “another evolution” for Conan, and Cosmopolitan observed the return to his “vulnerable bedroom pop songwriting roots.”
Last month, Conan stopped the internet as “Sally” during Role Model’s set at Gov Ball in one of the most viral moments from the weekend. The entire festival showed up to Conan’s main stage performance that weekend – check out this video of the HUGE crowd HERE !
Weeks later, Conan also appeared on the big screen as Charli XCX’s “Apple Girl” with a Vodka Cranberry in hand. Hot off another buzzy moment, Conan performed at Poland’s Open’er Festival, with a surprise performance of his new song “Vodka Cranberry”!

About Conan Gray:
Nobody has tapped into the thoughts and feelings of his generation quite like Conan Gray. The Texas native has transformed into the quintessential Gen Z singer-songwriter and pop artist by never losing sight of where he came from and designing a world without comparison. Conan turns the page to his next chapter in 2025 with his fourth studio album, Wishbone, out August 15th, 2025. Continuing a partnership that dates back to 2018, he welcomed GRAMMY® Award winner Dan Nigro back as Executive Producer for the album, along with producers Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd.
Conan left an indelible imprint on pop culture in 2020 when his debut LP Kid Krow, produced by Dan Nigro, bowed at #5 on the Billboard 200. Kid Krow went Platinum and yielded a series of signature smashes, including the 4x-Platinum “Heather,” 3x-Platinum “Maniac,” Gold-Certified “Comfort Crowd,” “The Story,” “Wish You Were Sober,” and “The Cut That Always Bleeds.” Among these staples, he entered rarified air with “Heather”, which has become one of a handful of songs with 2 billion streams penned by one writer – Conan himself.
With over 12 billion global streams to date, Conan returned to the Top 15 of the Billboard 200 with Superache (2022) and Found Heaven (2024). He has incited the applause of The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GQ, V Man, PAPER, The FADER, Billboard, and NPR in addition to performing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, TODAY, and more. In 2024, Conan took flight as an arena headliner, selling out hallowed venues around the world such as Madison Square Garden, the Kia Forum, and Wembley Arena. A fixture at events like the Met Gala, he is just as uncompromisingly influential as a style icon, embracing a fashion-forward aesthetic like no other. Beyond thriving as a songwriter and performer, Conan also serves as the core creative director for his project, meticulously shaping every layer of his vision for each album era. He continues this trend on Wishbone – 12 self-written songs from a world all his own.
