Planet Norris released a follow up single in 2018 called Thump & Bump. The music, melody, and lyrics were all written by Scott, which holds true for all of the PLANET NORRIS songs. Scott worked with Heather Gayle also known as 1Luv to sing Thump & Bump, which made for a creative, soulful and dance pop song with a club vibe! Scott found Heather to sing the pop track because she is fantastic and was also a top 10 finalist on both The Voice and American Idol.
In 2019 PLANET NORRIS released the country boogie single Let’s Live for the Weekend.
