JOHN SUMMIT & HAYLA "Shiver"

February 14, 2024 — Los Angeles, CA — Today, multi-genre artist and global dance sensation, John Summit, joins forces once again with hotly tipped and in demand UK artist/singer & songwriter Hayla, for their second highly anticipated single “Shiver” via Experts Only.

The electrifying track seamlessly blends Summit’s diverse production style while complimenting Hayla’s powerful vocals and emotional songwriting, resulting in a song that is sure to resonate with listeners worldwide and create pure magic.

Summit’s and Hayla’s 2023 collaboration "Where You Are" was a global hit and huge moment for both artists: peaking at #8 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart, and reaching #1 on the US Dance radio chart. Now, the dynamic duo is back together once again for their 2024 follow up “Shiver”, setting the bar high for what’s to come in dance music this year.

“Shiver is all about that moment when you finally start to feel your emotions again and feel alive”, says Hayla. “Being with that one person, or with a group of people that make you want to live in that moment forever. That feeling we all experience - the tingle or the spark through your whole body. The line ‘Can you feel it now’ is almost a self reflection and realization that this moment is exactly what you needed.”

Over the last year, John Summit’s rise in the dance music scene has been nothing short of meteoric. He was the only DJ named in Forbes 30 under 30 list, sold out his first stadium headline show (22,000 tickets) at Los Angeles’ BMO Stadium last December, and announced the sell out of his July Madison Square Garden headline less than two hours after tickets went on-sale.

2024 is already shaping out to be a busy year for the artist. With a debut album slated for mid-summer, fans can expect a lot from him this year — more immediately at his upcoming shows during Miami Music Week (at Factory Town), major sets at Coachella Music Festival and EDC Mexico, and additional global dates TBA.

Across 2022 and 2023 Hayla received back to back #1’s on US Dance Radio, first with “Escape” by Kx5 feat.
