"I am so excited that I am getting the chance to release my music here in the US. 'Heart Skips A Beat' has been a big hit for me around the world, but I never thought I'd be able to bring it to the US! It's been brilliant to collaborate with both Chiddy and Flo Rida on this album and I can't wait for you guys to hear it!"- Olly Murs
