The Chainsmokers Share New Single Summertime Friends

Friday, 08 September 2023 Written by Jon Stickler

The Chainsmokers have shared a new single called Summertime Friends.

The reflective club-ready track was influenced by band member Drew Taggart's romantic relationship with model Marianne Fonseca, and comes with a retro-style video directed by Spencer Miller. In a post on social media, Taggart shared details of the song's inspiration, writing:

"I fell in love with this girl named Mari last spring which you probably know by now if you if you’ve been following this page for the last 6 months. A few weeks after we started hanging out i was in NYC in the studio and wrote this song called Summertime Friends about the night we met.

"I had run into her at this party in LA (classic). We had known each other in passing for a couple years but never had a substantial conversation. She said hi to me at the bar where I was stuck making small talk with a couple I didn’t really know… It was laughable how much we had in common. I remember thinking ‘how has it taking this long for us to talk?’ I think I knew then that we were supposed to be together. Luckily I had the courage to ask for her number at the end of the night and luckily she was feeling open minded.

"I love writing about small moments especially ones with tension like this. I hope it makes you feel something."

The tune follows the chart-topping DJ duo's July single, Celula featuring Colombian superstar Maluma and American artist Nicky Jam. Their most recent album, meanwhile, is 2022's 'So Far So Good'.

Fresh from two major shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, The Chainsmokers will continue their Las Vegas XS Nightclub Residency this weekend.
