On February 10, 2013, Fun won aGrammyfor "We Are Young". Upon receiving the Grammy, Ruess commented, "I don't know what I was thinking writing the chorus for this song. If this is in HD, everyone can see our faces, and we are not very young. We've been doing this for 12 years, and I just got to say we could not do this without the help of all the fans that we've had keeping us afloat for the last 12 years."[18]Fun also won the Grammy for Best New Artist.[19]

Alongside Fun, Ruess had been a supporting vocalist for many different songs across genres. In 2012, he was featured on "Only Love" fromAnthony Green's second solo album,Beautiful Things,and in 2013 was featured onPink's album,The Truth About Love,in the song "Just Give Me a Reason".The song began as a simple songwriting session withPink.She decided the song needed another side to it and subsequently a male part was written. While at first reluctant, with Pink encouraging him, he decided to participate in the duet.[20]The song eventually topped the USBillboardHot 100, becoming his first number-one single as a solo artist and his second overall. After the success of "Just Give Me a Reason", Ruess was featured onEminem's eighth studio albumThe Marshall Mathers LP 2on the track "Headlights".Many of Ruess' lyrics were borrowed from a previously unreleased track," Jumping the Shark ", written during theAim and Ignitesessions.

2014–2017: Solo music projects

edit

On February 5, 2015, Fun posted on their official website their status stating "there was no new Fun album in the works"; instead stating all three members were pursuing their own projects.

Fun was founded by the three of us at a time when we were coming out of our own bands. One thing that has always been so special about Fun is that we exist as three individuals in music who come together to do something collaborative. We make Fun records when we are super inspired to do so. Currently Nate is working on his first solo album, Andrew is scoring films, and Jack is on tour and working on Bleachers music. The three of us have always followed inspiration wherever it leads us. Sometimes that inspiration leads to Fun music, sometimes it leads to musical endeavors outside of Fun. We see all of it as part of the ecosystem that makes Fun, fun.[22]

In an interview withRolling Stone,Ruess added, "You get a little selfish about the songs that you write, and it's really hard to do that in a group setting, where there are two other people, and you have to think about everybody else's feelings. I'm writing and singing these songs about myself. When you work with producers versus bandmates, that line becomes a lot less blurry."[5]

In addition to his solo album, Ruess was invited to perform onBrian Wilson's albumNo Pier Pressure.Wilson, who co-foundedthe Beach Boys,likened Ruess' voice to his deceased brother and former bandmateCarl Wilson.[23]Ruess then contributedguest vocalsto the frequent collaboratorEmile Haynie's 2015 release,We Fall.Ruess' then released his first single from his debut album, titledNothing Without Love,which was sent to the alternative radio on February 23, 2015.[24]

He performed in Utrecht, Netherlands, at the intimate Tivoli/Vredenburg Cloud Nine location.
