The album will also feature the top 40 summer hit "Heart Skips A Beat" ft. Chiddy Bang.

VH1 hand-selected Olly Murs as their February "You Oughta Know Artist" and is one of Billboard Magazine's Next Big Things in Music for 2013. Entertainment Weekly also featured Olly as one of their 15 new stars they love, and RIGHT PLACE RIGHT TIME was selected as one of USA TODAY's Albums to Watch. Olly's US debut album features new tracks from Olly's 3rd #1 UK album, also titled RIGHT PLACE RIGHT TIME, as well as tracks from his double platinum sophomore UK album IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW (see below for full track list). Olly has co-written the entire album in both the UK and US, collaborating with the likes of Steve Robson, Claude Kelly, Wayne Hector, TMS and Andrew Frampton. Olly has also written three songs with his friend, singer/songwriter and fellow Essex boy, Ed Drewett ("Glad You Came," All Time Low, The Wanted).

Olly debuted "Troublemaker" on LIVE with Kelly and Michael January 23 on ABC and will return to ABC's Good Morning America on April 17 for a special live performance. Olly will also be making an appearance on the fifth season of the CW series 90210. In the episode set to premiere in April, Olly plays himself and will perform two songs, "Troublemaker," and "Right Place Right Time."

Olly's rise to fame began after he auditioned in 2009 for Britain's top singing competition show, The X Factor. Simon Cowell said it inspired "the easiest yes I've ever given." In a short amount of time Murs has achieved international success, including two double platinum albums and four #1 singles in the UK.
