Martin Garrix Confirms ‘There For You’ For Mid-May Release
One of the youngest in the game and a constant source of new music Martin Garrix just confirmed the release of his newest single. In case you missed out on his Coachella performance, Martin Garrix debuted his forthcoming radio single ‘There For You’. He even brought out the featured vocalist, Troye Sivan to perform beside him and to premiere the track together in front of thousand of eyes. Ever since then, fans have been anticipating the official release of the single.
Now, in an interview, Garrix revealed that the new single will come out halfway into May. This clip doesn’t reveal any specific release date but most major artists release their music on Fridays so we can speculate that ‘There For You’ will be released on Friday, May 19th.

Coachella as the world’s biggest teaser drop
Debuting a single live at Coachella, before it’s even close to being out, is a pretty smart way to test a song’s reaction. You’ve got two full weekends of press, livestreams, and fans filming everything on their phones — basically free marketing on a massive scale. Garrix and Troye Sivan doing this together at that moment worked out well for both of them: Garrix got to show off a new pop-leaning direction, and Sivan got in front of a dance music crowd he might not have reached otherwise.
Why a Garrix/Sivan pairing made sense
On paper this is kind of an unusual duo — a Dutch EDM producer and an Australian pop singer known more for introspective, indie-leaning tracks than festival bangers. But that contrast is honestly what made ‘There For You’ work. Garrix had been trying to push past the big-room mold he broke through with, and Sivan’s voice gave the track an emotional, radio-ready quality that a lot of pure EDM singles were missing at the time.
