When Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding first began teasing their new collaboration, “Miracle,” one of the visual assets was a video of Ellie singing, beautiful voice echoed in a large church. That was St. Bartholomew the Great, London’s oldest surviving church, and the full performance is now available. “Miracle” came out three weeks ago on March 10 and immediately stunned fans who heard Calvin going in a more trance direction, especially after his latest album, Funk Wav Bounces Vol 2.

Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding haven’t worked together since his 2014 album, Motion, in which the two created one of his biggest hits, “Outside.” She also featured on his 2012 album, 18 Months, on “I Need Your Love.” Two months ago, the two teased that they were back in the studio together, and today we get the official release of their new song, “Miracle.” The two go back in time with a straight up trance collaboration, something wholly unexpected from the two of them. Calvin has usually lea

Calvin Harris is hitting a few US festivals this year, including Coachella which announced yesterday, as well as Hangout Fest in Alabama in May. He just released his latest album, Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2, last year — despite featuring even more guests than the first iteration, the sequel to his hit 2017 album didn’t garner quite as many positive responses. That being said, we have reason to be excited as he’s back in the studio with Ellie Goulding. The two haven’t worked together since his 2014

Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding's collaborative chemistry is a gift that keeps on giving. They reunited last year to release "Miracle," which Harris said at the time marked the completion of a "trilogy" of bangers after teaming up for 2012's "I Need Your Love" and 2014's "Outside." They're now back with a fourth collaboration, which the chart-topping dance music superstar recently tested out for a crowd on the island of Ibiza during a DJ set at Ushuaïa. Much like Harris and Goulding's collabora

The DJ legend, Calvin Harris, and Liverpool FC ironically have an entertaining past together. Which has all led to Harris performing on the Liverpool FC Bus during the parade celebrating Liverpool clinching the 24-25 Premier League Title. The team captain took it upon himself this year to contact Harris to ask, or politely demand that he join the team for this victory. Surprisingly, this is Calvin Harris’ second time doing this. Harris first did it in 2022 when the Reds won the Carabao Cup a

Following singles with 21 Savage, Dua Lipa & Young Thug, Normani, Tinashe, & Offset, and Justin Timberlake, Halsey, & Pharrell, Calvin Harris has at last dropped the full Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2, following up the original album which dropped five years ago.

The Scottish artist has been in the eye of the hurricane lately since the release of his latest single. This one is no new topic. It’s an ongoing theme in the music scene that new songs will often sound similar to older releases, sometimes too similar. And the current debate takes place between two titans of Electronic music — Nick Chicane and Calvin Harris. The subject being the latter made a melody too close to the former’s hit ‘Offshore‘. Since the release of ‘Blessings‘, Calvin Harri
