The duo premiered their new single at this year's Coachella Festival, receiving stellar festival coverage across the board including Variety, Nylon and Teen Vogue with Idolator stating: 'This unexpected collaboration played to both of their strengths " from the natural vulnerability in Troye's voice, to Martin's ability to add unexpected heart to pop-EDM bangers."
Produced, mixed, and mastered by Martin Garrix and co-written by Garrix and Sivan, -There For You' is both heartfelt and emotive.
The docu-style video for -There For You' was shot in San Francisco, California by Taylor Cut Films (Usher, Ciara) and takes a look at the lives of both Martin and Troye leading up to their performance of the new single at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco.
Martin Garrix says of working with Troye on the track: 'I've been so fortunate to work with such an incredible artist like Troye on this record. I've been a fan for ages and he had an idea for this record, sent it over and the rest is history. He's a true artist and on top of that, a good friend. So excited to share with you guys the result of our hard work." Troye Sivan adds: 'Working with Martin has been such an incredible experience. He puts every bit of himself into everything he does and is completely hands on. I'm so proud of what we've created together on -There For You'."
