Teasing the world with just a snippet of his new track on his MySpace, Calvin Harris has announced the release of his second album this week. Ready for the Weekend will feature the title track (you can hear a live version of it here) as well as the monster single “I’m Not Alone.” Of course, this makes two singles in a row that Harris has quoted 90s dance hits in the title. Oh, we’re pretty sure he’s aware. “Ready for the Weekend” features a very 90s anthem vocal on the chorus courtesy of Mary Pearce, a British R&B/soul/house/West End singer who (perhaps coincidentally) has worked with Harris’ idol, Lionel Richie.
Before the album releases and in between summer dates that include a few in Ibiza, Harris will be working on Sophie Ellis-Bextor‘s long-awaited fourth album. He already produced one track expected to appear on it, “Off and On,” originally recorded with Róisín Murphy.
