Davis Mallory — Dance With Me

Nashville Singer-Songwriter and MTV’s Real World and Challenge alumnus Davis Mallory is releasing his newest single “Dance With Me” on March 7. “Dance With Me” is an electro dance- pop track co-written by Mallory and produced by French DJ Loic Penillo. It will be released under French record label Sidekick Music. The song is about the potential for love that exists when you first ask someone to dance with you.

Mallory wrote “Dance With Me” as a topline over an instrumental sent by Loic Penillo. Both artists met before attending Amsterdam Dance Event.

“I wrote ‘Dance With Me’ in September 2017 at a time in my life when I'd been single for a while and, admittedly, felt lonely as evidenced in the lyrics,” Mallory said. "’I'm lost in the lonely, but it's too hard to show it’ – ‘My head gets caught in the moment, but my heart doesn't know it’ references my tendency to fall in love quickly with a cute guy but realizing I need to slow things down and be ready for the right person.”

“In the bridge, I referenced one of my favorite songs off Britney Spears’ album Glory, "Hard to Forget Ya" - ‘You're on my mind, I just can't forget ya’ ([Spears’ lyrics] are: ‘there's something about you, I just can't forget ya’)”

“Dance With Me” is Mallory’s first release in 2018 and follows his many successes in 2017. He had his first songs as a creative signed to record labels: Landis’ “Loud (feat Davis Mallory)” dropped on Grammy-nominated French producer Cedric Gervais’ Delecta label and earned him a Spotlight Artist feature on the label’s website. This was followed by a collaboration with Swedish producer John Dahlback (who has worked with Lady Gaga, Swedish House Mafia, and Avicii) on a release titled “Anyone Would Know,” a cornerstone of Dahlback’s 2017 album on Armada Records. Mallory’s debut EP: LOUD was released on July 7, 2017, and spawned music videos for the title track, “Be Without You”, and “Because of Love”, which nabbed a feature on EDM powerhouse blog YourEDM. He toured the US after the EP’s release - kicking off at Milwaukee Pride (alongside Betty Who & Todrick Hall) and performing in Nashville, LA & NYC. Mallory's hard work and touring in conjunction with the publicity his album garnered set off a snowball effect - his social media channels began seeing a spike in traffic, leading to “Loud” and “Somebody’s Watching”, a release separate of his EP, surpassing 100,000 listens on Spotify.
