OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder talks writing songs for Adele

You won't believe how they met!

Published 18th Jul 2016

OneRepublic joined us backstage at Summer Live and frontman Ryan Tedder told us just what it's like to write songs for superstar Adele.

Ryan told us after he downloaded Adele's debut album '19' that he was eager to contact her to get on board. A few months later the pair bumped into each other in a hotel elevator before getting in the studio in London.

To date Ryan has wrote three of Adele's smash hits including 'Rumour Has It', 'Turning Tables' and new album track 'Remedy'.

Check out the video below:

Of course Adele isn't the only person Ryan has wrote for. The 'Counting Stars' singer has worked with the likes of Beyonce, Ellie Goulding and Maroon 5 to name a few.

OneRepublic's new song 'Wherever I Go' is available for download now!
