October 24th, 2019 — Today marks the long-awaited release of Gravity — the full-length debut from L.A.-based artist/producer Gryffin. Released via Darkroom/Geffen Records, Gravity arrives in the midst of Gryffin’s recently launched U.S. headlining tour.

With Gravity, Gryffin delivers his most fully realized work to date, a sonically adventurous body of work that instantly transports the audience into a universe of his own making.
“With the album and with the show, the goal is to teleport people into a completely different world,” says the musician otherwise known as Dan Griffith. “From the beginning I’ve always wanted my music to uplift people and take them on some kind of journey, and I feel like I’ve been able to accomplish that in a whole new way that I’m so excited to share with everybody.”
Last week, Gryffin premiered the latest single from Gravity: a full-hearted and feel-good track titled “Body Back,” featuring Swedish singer/songwriter Maia Wright. The song soon drew raves from outlets like Dancing Astronaut, who noted that Gryffin “continues to prove his pop prowess.”
Gravity also includes the previously released singles “OMG” (a #16 hit on Billboard’s US Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, featuring vocals from Grammy Award-nominated singer/songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen), “Hurt People” (a collaboration with singer/songwriter Aloe Blacc, co-written by Bastille frontman Dan Smith), “Baggage” by Gryffin with Gorgon City ft. AlunaGeorge (praised by Dancing Astronaut as a “perfectly poignant and danceable requiem to the summer season”), “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).

More on Gryffin:
Born Dan Griffith, Gryffin got his start in music as a classically trained pianist and guitarist and also played in several bands. After receiving an electrical engineering degree from the University of Southern California, he pursued a path in music production, drawing equally from his carefully honed musicality and edgy ingenuity. Gryffin made his breakthrough in 2016 with two singles showcasing his melodic take on dance music: “Heading Home” ft. Josef Salvat (which shot to #1 on Spotify’s US and Global Viral charts) and the Bipolar Sunshine collaboration “Whole Heart.” In addition, his 2017 smash single “Feel Good” — with Illenium and featuring Daya — peaked at #18 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay charts. Gryffin’s recent triumphs include “Tie Me Down” ft. Elley Duhé (an August release that hit #2 on the Spotify US Viral Chart and #9 on the Global Viral Chart, with over 80 million streams to date) and “Remember” ft. Zohara (a November release that garnered 6.5 million streams in its first few weeks and earned support from Tiesto, who featured the track on an Instagram story).
