Hilary Duff releases new single “Sparks”

Hilary Duff has released her new single online.

The singer/songwriter posted the official audio clip for “Sparks” to her Vevo channel on Monday (April 06, 2015).

“Sparks” – now available for download via iTunes – was co-written by Peter Thomas and Tove Lo, whose other credits include Ellie Goulding’s “Love Me Like You Do” [Republic] and Lea Michele’s “1000 Needles” [Columbia].

Production duties on “Sparks” were handled by Christian “Bloodshy” Karlsson, who is also co-responsible for Britney Spears’ “How I Roll” [RCA], Katy Perry’s “Love Me” [Capitol] and David Guetta’s “Bang My Head” f/ Sia [Parlophone].

Duff’s upcoming fifth album – featuring previous promotional cuts “Chasing the Sun” and “All About You” – will hit stores later this year via RCA Records.

The still-untitled project serves as the follow-up to 2007’s “Dignity,” which debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 Albums Chart.

Other musicians backing Duff on the keenly-awaited album are Toby Gad (Madonna, John Legend), Ed Sheeran (Tori Kelly, Christina Perri), Lindy Robbins (Brandy, Jason Derulo) and Savan Kotecha (Usher, Ariana Grande).
