Dance music maverick Gryffin has revealed his newest single ‘Dance Through The Night’ with fellow producer Whethan and singer-songwriter Norma Jean Martine out now via Virgin Music. The single arrives as part of Gryffin’s anticipated upcoming third studio album PULSE due this Summer.
Hallmarked by catchy hooks and uptempo rhythms, ‘Dance Through The Night’ captures the uplifting energy and magnetic spirit that continue to propel PULSE. Moving through deep verses, progressive builds, and melodic drops, ‘Dance Through The Night’ resonates with Gryffin and Whethan’s roots in 2000s and 2010s dance music while referencing a spectrum of vibrant house and techno sounds.
“‘Dance Through the Night’ is one of my favorite tracks on my upcoming album PULSE. I’ve been a huge fan of Whethan’s for a while and I couldn’t wait to get into the studio with him. It was refreshing working with a young DJ/producer who is able to bring a whole new perspective to the record. Then, the song truly came to life with Norma Jean Martine’s powerful vocals. I can’t wait for you guys to listen to this one!” – Gryffin
“I played one of my first shows ever with Gryffin back in Chicago when I was just starting out in 2016 and I’m stoked to be here today releasing a collaboration that we both love and feel is a representation of our sounds.” – Whethan
“I am so excited and honored to have been asked to collaborate with Gryffin and Whethan on this record. Dan is an American EDM legend, and the song is written by one of my favorite writers and friend, ALIDA. After having so much success in the European dance market, it feels very full circle to be coming back home and collaborating with Gryffin in the US.” – Norma Jean
Japanese-American producer, instrumentalist, songwriter, and DJ, Dan Griffith has built a breathtaking catalog of melodic, lyrically-led dance originals and remixes as Gryffin. His platinum and gold-certified discography features collaborations with crossover acts like OneRepublic, Tinashe, MØ, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Aloe Blacc, as well as electronic contemporaries including Kygo, Gorgon City, and Seven Lions. In 2019, Gryffin released his stunning debut Gravity, with his sophomore album Alive following in 2022. ‘Dance Through The Night’ serves as the latest taste of PULSE, following previous singles ‘LAST OF US’ with Rita Ora, ‘MAGIC’ with babyidontlikeyou, and ‘MAGNET’ with Disco Lines and MAX, and Gryffin’s performances at Ultra Music Festival, Coachella’s DoLaB Stage, and EDC Las Vegas.
Whethan quickly rose to prominence in the electronic music scene in the 2010s when the Chicago-born tastemaker became the youngest producer to debut on Australia’s Future Classic label, leading to him working with artists such as Oliver Tree, Dua Lipa, Joji, The Chainsmokers, Kygo, Megan Thee Stallion, Meghan Trainor, and Charli XCX. His diverse discography champions his impressive versatility as a new-age dance music attaché, from the sunny vibes of his debut album Life of a Wallflower, Vol. 1 to his dance-pop LP Fantasy, into singles such as R&B-infused ‘ROOM IS ON FIRE’ ft. Snakehips & AG Club and the recently viral hit ‘MONEY ON THE DASH’ off his forthcoming album Life of a Wallflower, Vol. 2.
