Gryffin has teamed up with British production duo Gorgon City for a magnetic new single called “Baggage,” featuring UK synth-pop duo AlunaGeorge. The track will appear on Gryffin’s long-anticipated debut album Gravity, due out October 10th via Darkroom/Geffen Records.
Listen to “Baggage” by Gryffin & Gorgon City ft. AlunaGeorge HERE.
With its hypnotic rhythms and undeniable hook, “Baggage” showcases Gryffin and Gorgon City’s shared affinity for sleekly composed melodic house. As the track shifts from stripped-back reflection to massive dance-floor epic, singer Aluna Francis’s soulful vocals encompass everything from raw heartache to dreamy intensity.
“Baggage” arrives as the follow-up to Gryffin’s recent single “OMG” ft. Carly Rae Jepsen, which quickly hit #16 on Billboard’s US Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Released in July, “OMG” was hailed as “shiny and delightful” by Billboard, who also praised Gryffin’s “use of dynamics between the playful, textural verses and the ecstatic hook.”
Along with “Baggage” and “OMG,” Gravity will include Gryffin’s previous singles “Hurt People” (a collaboration with singer/songwriter Aloe Blacc, co-written by Bastille frontman Dan Smith), “All You Need to Know” by Gryffin with SLANDER ft. Calle Lehmann (a #12 hit on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic chart), and “Remember” ft. ZOHARA (a track that reached #1 on Dance Radio).
After playing many of summer’s biggest festivals, Gryffin is now gearing up to take the stage this weekend at Life is Beautiful Music & Art Festival in Las Vegas.
Known for his captivating live show, Gryffin will embark on a North American headlining tour in support of Gravity next month. Kicking off on October 11 at the Shrine Auditorium in L.A., the 28-date Gravity II Tour will wrap up on November 26 at the Joy Theater in New Orleans.
