Dan + Shay fans have something to look forward to this week! This Friday, February 5, the Grammy-winning duo will release their brand new single titled "Glad You Exist."
The duo first hinted at the new single in a post on shared social media on Monday (February 1), which featured only the song title and release date. The next day (February 2), they shared a follow-up post explaining more details behind the song and what it means to them.
"To us, 'Glad You Exist" is more than just a song," the note begins. "It's a message of gratitude and hope. A message to everyone in our lives: our fans, our friends, our families, to remind them all how grateful we are to be on the planet at the same time."
"It's truly remarkable when you think about it," they continued. "We've spent the majority of the past year, like many others, searching for answers and a sense of normalcy, but finding comfort in memories of better days (that we all know will return soon). Concerts, bonfires, road trips with friends, even the simple things like date night at a restaurant, or beers at a bar during a football game. This song has taken on a new meaning not being able to see our loved ones in person, but throughout history, music has always had a special way of bringing people together, even when we are furthest apart. These words hold a special place in our hearts, and hopefully, they will in yours too. We've said it before, and we'll say it again (and again). We're just so glad you exist. Every. Single. One of you."
"Glad You Exist" follows Dan + Shay's latest No. 1 hit single, "I Should Probably Go To Bed." Fans can pre-order/ pre-save the new song now.
