Gold-certified singer/songwriter AJ Mitchell returns with his new single, “Passionate.” Get it HERE.

“Passionate” is the first taste of the budding superstar’s upcoming sophomore album, As Far As The Eye Can See, slated for release in 2024. Additionally, AJ couples the release of the song with a visualizer, giving fans a peek inside the creative world he is set to explore throughout the next year. Watch HERE.

Written over the course of the last two years, AJ Mitchell’s upcoming sophomore effort is a true coming-of-age. Intimately detailing stories that explore a young man entering adulthood, As Far As The Eye Can See encapsulates all the thrilling, terrifying adventures that come alongside the course of a relationship. “Passionate,” co-written and produced by Kid Culture (Justin Bieber, Cordae, Eddie Benjamin), begins chapter one of the story—where the inevitable clash between the heart and the head starts to take over the dance floor.

“The past two years I took myself on a journey to find the fire in life again,” says AJ. “I explored the world, moved to New York City, fell in and out of love, made decisions simply for the pleasure of tasting life and all it has to offer, for better or worse. It was important to me to rediscover my passion for my music and for what I wanted to express as an artist. ‘Passionate’ is the perfect introduction to my new album and the next stage of my music because it was one of the first songs on this project my producer and I wrote to jump start the entire thing. I am truly proud of this song and excited to share it with my fans.”

About AJ Mitchell:

AJ Mitchell is an explorer. The 22-year-old rising star writes with the thrill of discovery in mind. After more than a billion streams, he’s stepping into a bold new world with his second album As Far As The Eye Can See, an electro-pop-soul odyssey through love and loss. “With this album, I wanted to go ‘as far as the eye can see,’ where there’s nothing blocking my vision, where I’m free to create,” he explains. AJ wrote the album while dating a girl he knew wasn't right for him but couldn’t resist. Their doomed romance opened him up to the central themes of his new album: experiencing things that might hurt us and exploring life regardless of the outcome, doing what feels right, and not giving a fuck. 

Since signing with Epic Records and Vol 1. in 2018, AJ Mitchell’s music has connected with openhearted listeners. He leapt past the one-billion-stream mark within three years after being discovered on social media where his soulful covers of popular songs earned him over a million followers. He charted four Top 40 songs at pop radio, collaborated with names like Ava Max, Cheat Codes, and Steve Aoki, and received acclaim from the likes of Variety (“who put them on their 2020 “Young Hollywood” list), Billboard, MTV, and more. While his 2021 debut album SKYVIEW introduced us to this “pop prince-in-the-making,” as dubbed by Hunger magazine, this next chapter invites us into AJ’s expanding kingdom, one built on melodies as infectious as they are unpredictable. “With this album, the goal was to explore, to have a good time, and make the best music possible,” he says. “I think that’s why I love music so much. It can start with anything. I can create whatever world I want and just start exploring it.”
