BURNS, the internationally celebrated, multi-platinum producer and artist, has unveiled his latest single, “Need U”—a radiant, hook-laden track destined to soundtrack the summer. Fusing emotive vocals with shimmering synths and smooth, sun-drenched percussion, the new release captures the signature sound that has made BURNS a mainstay in both pop and electronic music.
“Need U” arrives on the heels of an explosive run for the UK-born producer. In 2024, BURNS earned dual GRAMMY nominations in the Best Pop Dance Recording category for his work on Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding’s chart-topping hit “Miracle” and David Guetta & Bebe Rexha’s “One in a Million.” Adding to his momentum, he recently produced ROSÉ’s “Messy (From F1® The Movie),” the official single from the upcoming Formula 1 blockbuster starring Brad Pitt.
Throughout his career, BURNS has quietly shaped the sound of modern pop and electronic music. His production credits include industry heavyweights such as Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Britney Spears, and Sam Smith, as well as scene-defining collaborations with Charli XCX, A$AP Rocky, PARTYNEXTDOOR, and Teddy Swims. Known for blending emotional resonance with club-ready precision, his influence can be felt across genres and borders.
As a solo artist, BURNS first broke out with the viral 2021 hit “Talamanca,” a slow-burning dance anthem that earned widespread acclaim. He’s continued his upward trajectory with tracks like “Better” featuring Teddy Swims, “Burning In My Arms – Edit,” and the nostalgic, uplifting “Stars” featuring Steve Winwood.
With “Need U”, BURNS reaffirms his place at the forefront of global dance music—offering yet another heartfelt, festival-ready release that bridges the worlds of pop, house, and euphoria.
