Producer/songwriter Andrew Watt ‘s started off his wild year with Lady Gaga ‘s smash Mayhem , co-producing and co-writing with Gaga, Cirkut, and others, and earning an executive producer credit alongside Gaga and Michael Polansky. A month later came Brandi Carlile and Elton John’s first album together, Who Believes in Angels?, produced and co-written by Watt. Since then, he’s worked on Katseye ‘s single “Gabriela,” played at his friend Ozzy Osbourne’s final concert, and co-produced Carlile’s new solo album, Returning to Myself (due Oct. 24) — and those are just the projects he can talk about.
Earlier this month, three different songs Watt worked on dropped in the same week — Lady Gaga’s Wednesday track “ The Dead Dance” (co-produced and co-written with Gaga and Cirkut)
