Marshmello is a DJ who has had a lot of success recently, he's had collaborations with the fantastic Selena Gomez with 'Wolves', British singer Anne-Marie, with 'FRIENDS', and now, he's teased what is sure to be another fantastic release.

Taking to Instagram, the DJ posted a short video captioned with, 'HAPPIER ft. @bastilledan this Friday 😄 pre-save link in bio.' The video shows helium balloons with Marshmello's recognisable logo floating into the air, whilst a short clip of the song plays.

This short tease follows an earlier tweet from British band Bastille, who explained that they had written a song called 'Happier' last year and thought it would be a great collaboration.

Former Fifth Harmony singer Camila Cabello dominated the charts with her massive collaboration with Young Thug on the catchy single 'Havana'.

They tweeted, 'Last year we wrote a song called “Happier” which we thought would be great as a collaboration. We had a lot of fun getting to work on it with Marshmello who managed to find some joy in the melancholy…'

Bastille later confirmed that the new single would be released THIS Friday (17th August) saying, 'It’s always good to step into somebody else’s world for a minute and we’re excited for the track to finally be out on Friday.'

Although this collaboration might seem as a surprise to many, some eagle-eyed Marshmello fans might have noticed that back in March this year the DJ tweeted, 'playing phone tag with @bastilledan', causing many to think there might be a collab in the works.

Whilst Marshmello has been in the UK charts a lot this year, it has been a while since we've heard any new music from Bastille. Bastille formed in 2010 and had their big breakthrough with their Number 2 single 'Pompeii' in 2013, followed by 'Of The Night' later that year. Their last album, 'Wild World' was released in 2016.
