Dan + Shay Release New Single ‘Glad You Exist’

Following on from the release of their worldwide hit single ‘I Should Probably Go To Bed’ which became their eighth number 1 country single, the two-time Grammy award-winning duo and current nominees Dan + Shay return with their latest heartfelt offering ‘Glad You Exist’.

The song’s lyrics tell the story of hope and gratitude that the pair have dedicated to their loyal fanbase. The track has been penned by Dan Smyers, and Shay Mooney, alongside Ryan Lewis, Tayla Parx, and Jordan Reynolds with them colliding to expertly craft another sure-fire smash-hit.

It’s a poignant, sincere offering from Dan + Shay as they show how truly humbled they are by all the well-deserved success they have had so far and with this newest single more accolades are no doubt on the way for the multi-talented country duo as they shine a light on their immense musicianship.

Speaking about song, Dan + Shay explain:

“To us, ‘Glad You Exist’ is more than just a song. 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.

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.”

It’s a beautiful and timely release from the record-breaking performers and it will go a long way toward giving listeners around the world a much-needed reminder that this isn’t forever and good times will return, we will be able to hug loved ones, go to concerts, and be with friends again.
