Conan Gray Announces His Debut Album Kid Krow With A Moody Teaser

several months back, Conan Gray stopped by the MTV News office for a stripped-down, intimate three-song set. He played "Checkmate," "Comfort Crowd," and "Maniac," all tunes he mentioned would find their way on his forthcoming debut LP. Right now, we don't have to wait any longer to wonder whenever that'll drop.


On Friday (January 10), the 21-year-old singer-songwriter revealed that his first album, Kid Krow, is due out on March 20. He also shared the cover art, which finds Gray looking quite steely — somewhere between hardcore wrestling fantastic Raven and Brandon Lee's immortal dark superhero pose in The Crow — with a crow hovering above him. He also shared the new song "The Story."


"The record is a study of how I perceive the world," Gray mentioned in a statement. "I talk a lot about my companions and people I've met touring within the past year. It's me. I'm not the coolest person, however the album is me accepting the fact I'm weird and I don’t need to be anybody else. It's also a chance to provoke others to embrace who they are and be unapologetic about it."


He also added a fast little bit about the album's intimacy in a note on Instagram: "I mention more on this album than I've ever mentioned in my life, and I can't wait to tell you all of my secrets. Love y'all."


See the cover art and tracklist above and listen to "The Story" above. And once you wait for Kid Krow — which is completely a good wrestling gimmick, should Gray ever desire to go that route — revisit his efficiency and interview in MTV News' Office Hours set below.
