New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Internationally-acclaimed duo
Galantis have teamed up with singer-songwriter Wrabel for an introspective new collaborative single, "The Lake" - available now via Big Beat Records. A musical departure that showcases a new side of Galantis, the track pairs earnest harmonies with nostalgia-tinged lyrics that strive to provide a sonic escape.
"During this time of social distancing, we're trying to keep creative and find inspiration for new music. 'The Lake' is a bit different than our usual
Galantis songs. We wrote it with our friend Wrabel as a reflection of what we're all experiencing around the world right now. As we are all seeking peace of mind and hoping for a better tomorrow, we hope everyone out there can find a 'lake' of their own. Stay safe."- GALANTIS
"'The Lake' is about an escape. From a day or from a feeling. Remembering there's always somewhere to go, to pause and to reflect, even if it's a lake in our mind."- WRABEL
Galantis released their highly anticipated third studio album Church earlier this year, taking listeners on a euphoric sonic journey. The duo's first new album in three years, the 14-track collection features Galantis' explosive single "
