Ryan Beatty Announces New Album 'Sweet Fortune' + Shares New Single and Video 'Secret Language'
GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter Ryan Beatty makes his highly anticipated return with his fourth album, Sweet Fortune, out June 26 via Atlantic Records, co-produced by Beatty and frequent collaborator Ethan Gruska (Phoebe Bridgers, Remi Wolf, Conan Gray). Ryan is introducing the stunning new project with lead single "Secret Language," out today along with an accompanying music video directed by Rhys Scarabosio. Watch + Listen HERE.
"Secret Language" opens with an easygoing, twangy cadence, serving as a place where Beatty allows himself to go as big as the whirlwind of new love. The song swells, his voice pouring open over warm, sun-dappled horns, capturing the early, overwhelmed-yet-tentative moments of new love when you are afraid to say what you really mean. "Arms over armor / You're going in deep / Fell asleep with our bodies undressed / It's so hard to let go / It's so hard to let in / But you seduce what I always suppress."
Sweet Fortune expands upon the sound of Ryan's past releases, creating a genre-defying body of work that feels truly timeless. Throughout the record, Ryan distills the stunning poetry of falling in love into warm, atmospheric vignettes, brought to life through his brilliant songwriting. Sweet Fortune marks Ryan's most recent release since 2023's Calico, which earned critical praise from Billboard, Rolling Stone, i-D, V Magazine, FLAUNT, and many more.
Since his last record, Ryan earned a GRAMMY for Album of the Year for his co-writing work on Beyonce's COWBOY CARTER ("Bodyguard," "Protector," "II Hands II Heaven," "Just For Fun"). During this time, he established himself as one of pop music's most exciting collaborators, scoring additional songwriting cuts with industry giants like Miley Cyrus, Tyler, The Creator, and Bleachers, to name a few.
