Out now via 10K Projects, the new collaboration arrives as GRYFFIN ramps up his “Ten Years of Music. One Night.” concert series.
GRYFFIN continues sharpening his melodic edge with “Without You,” the brand-new collaboration alongside rising producer AVELLO and acclaimed singer-songwriter Sasha Alex Sloan. Released through 10K Projects, the track lands with the kind of polished emotional weight GRYFFIN has become known for, pairing warm songwriting with an explosive electronic build perfectly designed for your headphones, playlists, and unforgettable main stage moments.
“The session together in Nashville with Sasha brought out the feeling of just being truly grateful. And that feeling in a song is what created ‘Without You’. This one feels personal, but our goal was to have the writing and record be something for everyone. Couldn’t be more thrilled that Sasha the artist, not just the incredible songwriter, is back on this alongside AVELLO and I. Hope y’all love all the dreamy feels that felt like such a fusing of all our sounds in 2026.” – GRYFFIN
From the opening guitar-driven verses, the record feels intimate and personal, letting Sloan’s vocal take full control before the production begins to expand outwards. Taking you on an emotional rollercoaster as the track unfolds, GRYFFIN and AVELLO shape “Without You” into a soaring, pulse-driven production that balances restraint with payoff. Echoing percussion and evolving synth layers give the drop its lift without losing the heart of the song, creating a sound that feels hopeful, clean, and emotionally charged. “Without You” is anthemic but still human – and it also allows AVELLO the space to showcase the bass-informed energy that’s been fueling his rapid rise within the circuit.
“This collaboration came to life after running into GRYFFIN at EDC Orlando. He sent me the rough track that he and Sasha had been working on, and he asked if I’d be interested in working on it together. We went back and forth, then met in LA a month later and fleshed the project into a cool crossover of his melodic sound and my slightly more aggressive melodic bass sound.” – AVELLO
“Without You” also feels like a well-timed statement ahead of GRYFFIN’s upcoming “Ten Years of Music. One Night.” concert run, reinforcing his ability to bridge pop-level songwriting and production with dancefloor scale. As Sloan adds her signature lyrical clarity and GRYFFIN continues to spotlight emerging talent within his orbit – the collab certainly hits as more than a just a one-off, but a culmination of three talented artists whose work continues to make a direct impact.
“GRYFFIN was passing through Nashville and we decided to get together to write. We had never met before, but when we started writing this song I think we both knew it was something special. It feels like the perfect blend between our worlds and I can’t wait for it to be out!” – Sasha Alex Sloan
