LOS ANGELES, June 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Multi-platinum-selling recording artist and entertainment icon Donny Osmond has signed with BMG for his milestone 65th release, Start Again,  which is set to release in September 2021 with album pre-sales beginning later this summer. The album title was inspired by Osmond's own unique career journey of constant reinvention.

The 12 track Pop/R&B Start Again is Osmond's first full length solo album in 7 years and features collaborations with such notable performers as Charlie Wilson and Pierre Bensusan and songwriters 9am, Ant Clemons, Dalton Diehl, Jason Mater, Jonas Myrin, Larrance Dopson, Ne-Yo, Seth Reger, Space Primates and Amy Wadge. Additionally, in a career first, Start Again is entirely co-written and produced by Osmond himself. 

In coordination with the upcoming album release, Osmond will release the first single "WHO" on June 30, 2021 and will appear on TODAY with Hoda and Jenna on July 1, 2021, to promote the single and announce the album and partnership with BMG.  The accompanying music video, directed by Shane Drake and shot on location in Northern California, features Osmond portraying multiple versions of himself and showcasing three very different sides to the personalities that have made Osmond the consummate chameleon of a performer that he is today.

"After 3 years and over 40 songs written and narrowed down to my favorite 12, this is more than a compilation of tunes on an album. This record is an integral part of who I am after 6 decades of entertaining," said Osmond.

"We are honored to be releasing Donny Osmond's newest album, Start Again. We are in awe of his talent, passion and commitment to producing new and exciting music – even after 65 albums! A true American Icon, his musical influences are many but he remains uniquely himself. For fans and new listeners alike, this is Donny Osmond like you have never heard before!" said John Loeffler EVP, Legacy Artists at BMG.
