Adam Richard Wiles, known professionally as Calvin Harris, is a
Scottish record producer, DJ, singer and songwriter. His debut studio
album I Created Disco was released in June 2007, and was the precursor
to his UK top 10 singles "Acceptable in the 80s" and "The Girls". In
2009, Harris released his second studio album Ready for the Weekend,
which debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and was later
certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry within two months
of its release. Its lead single "I'm Not Alone" became his first
number-one
single on the UK Singles Chart.
Harris rose to international prominence with the release of his third
studio album 18 Months in October 2012. Topping the UK charts, the
album became his first to chart on the US Billboard 200 chart. All
eight of the album's singles, which were "Bounce", "Feel So Close",
"Let's Go", "We'll Be Coming Back", "Sweet Nothing", "Drinking from the
Bottle", "I Need Your Love" and "Thinking About You" reached the top 10
in the UK. At the time, Harris broke the record for the most top 10
songs from
one studio album on the UK Singles Chart with nine entries, surpassing
Michael Jackson.
