Morris teams with Zedd again

Friday, August 19, 2022 – Maren Morris and producer Zedd reunited on a new collaboration, "Make You Say," featuring production duo BEAUZ, which is out today.

Co-written by Zedd, Morris, BEAUZ, Charlie Puth and Jacob Kasher Hindlin. the new track follows the duo's six-times Platinum-certified hit collaboration from 2018, "The Middle," which has accumulated more than four billion streams worldwide.

"I loved working with Zedd again on 'Make You Say' after such a thrill ride with 'The Middle,'" Morris said. "It's such a vibey melody and making the music video was definitely a first for me as far as choreography and animation go. The fans are gonna flip."

"I started working on this record with Beauz about three or four years ago," Zedd said. "We went back and forth slowly, refining the production over the years, and then Charlie and I got in the studio and wrote the top line for the track. Maren recorded a demo of it and sounded phenomenal, so I met her in Nashville, and we recorded the final vocal to 'Make You Say,' and she took the song to a whole new level. 'Make You Say' is the kickoff of a new chapter, for me and I can't wait for the world to hear it."

Morris released her own album, "Humble Quest," earlier this week and is touring now behind it.

CD reviews for Maren Morris

CD review - Humble Quest Seeing Greg Kurstin listed as the producer on Maren Morris' "Humble Quest" album, can't help but raise a few eyebrows. His resume includes the likes of Pink and Sia, but not many country-related artists. Furthermore, it wasn't too long ago that Morris had big hit with "The Middle," a decidedly pop hit single recorded with the Russian-German producer, Zedd. This album's results are not as overtly pop as that recording, but not as country as her country hit "My Church. ...
CD review - GIRL Maren Morris, who had a huge pop hit with "The Middle," is never going to be anybody's ideal traditional country singer. Although, thankfully, there isn't anything that mind-numbingly beat-driven on her "GIRL" album, this is a full-length that will likely appeal as much to Morris' pop fans, as her country followers. The first great song, "A Song For Everything," addresses that mysterious intersection between one's favorite songs and significant life events. ...
CD review - Hero Maren Morris scored a hit out of the box with "My Church," the best of 11 songs on her major label full-length debut. The Texan infuses the song she wrote with uber producer busbee (he's worked with everyone from Keith Urban on "Ripcord" to 5 Seconds of Summer and Shakira and is one of three producers here including Morris) with mighty vocals powering a midtempo, soulful reading extolling the redemptive powers of playing music with the windows rolled down. ...
