Internationally acclaimed dance music powerhouse Galantis has dropped his new single “8 Days,” available now via Big Beat Records. Fresh off a live premiere at Pacha Ibiza, the Cathy Dennis co-penned track marks another euphoric collaboration between two songwriting/production titans.
Galantis, the genre-bending dance music project of Christian Karlsson (aka Bloodshy), has been universally celebrated as one of the most innovative of the past decade, receiving over 7.3 billion cumulative worldwide streams and over 1.9 billion video views. “8 Days” marks the first release following the fourth studio album Rx, which soundtracked the summer with smash hit “Lighter” alongside David Guetta and 5 Seconds of Summer. The collaboration landed at No. 1 on the US dance radio chart, created an incredible buzz among fans on social media and has amassed over 70 million streams to date.
RIAA gold-certified debut album Pharmacy reached No. 1 on the Billboard Dance Album chart on the strength of platinum-certified single “Peanut Butter Jelly” and three-time platinum-certified smash “Runaway (U & I)” – the latter of which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording – while 2017’s sophomore album The Aviary saw a top 10 debut in 23 countries. The third Galantis album, 2020’s Church, featured the chart-topping gold-certified single “Faith” with country music icon Dolly Parton featuring Mr. Probz, which saw a No. 1 debut on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Chart before quickly reaching No. 1 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay Chart where it remained for five weeks. Meanwhile, the gold-certified collaborative single “Heartbreak Anthem” with David Guetta & Little Mix proved a global sensation, spending ten weeks on the Billboard Global 200 chart and 13 consecutive weeks in the top 10 on the UK Official Chart.
One of dance music’s most dynamic and in-demand live performers, Galantis has sold out countless venues globally and has thrilled crowds across the global festival circuit. This past summer was highlighted by a third-annual return to Brooklyn Mirage for two sold-out Midsommar shows, a high-profile festival set at Lollapalooza, the US Open Finals Fan Fest & more.
