About The Bones (with Hozier)

Maren Morris, never averse to genre-bending exercises, announced out of nowhere on Thursday (Oct. 3) her plans of dropping a collaboration with Irish musician Hozier, best known for his 2013 hit "Take Me to Church." Morris and Hozier both posted one day earlier a video of Hozier acoustically working on her single "The Bones," which Morris termed "Absolutely stunning."

The new collaboration has both singers playfully dancing with each other's vocals, showing off both of their respective singing strengths, but does not alter the structure of the original much if at all, keeping a sunny vibe to the composition.

"The Bones" is Morris' second single from Girl, her sophomore album, released in March, and it serves as a sweet love song celebrating the foundations of a relationship. The video for the single shows hazy, vintage-filtered shots of Morris and singer-songwriter husband Ryan Hurd in a testament to the strength of their marriage. The project's first single, its title track, recently became Morris' second career No. 1 song.

American country music singer and songwriter Maren Morris has released two studio albums and eight singles, including three as a featured artist. She has also released nine music videos. Her debut major-label album, Hero, was released in 2016 and debuted on top of the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.[1] Morris has generated two number one singles on the Country Airplay chart,[2] as well as a number one single (as a featured artist) on Billboard's Dance/Electronic Songs and Dance/Mix Show Airplay Charts, the first active Country artist to do so
