The release was also supported by remixes from artists across the wider house spectrum, including Franky Rizardo, Jazz-N-Groove and Serve Cold & Grigoré, as well as a Sunrise version accompanied by a DJ mix direct from Ibiza.
Now almost a year later, he returns to the London house institution with ‘Girl’, a fresh and summery record that sees Jonas bringing his global crossover power into the Defected world.
“This record really came from a place of pure nostalgia for me. I’ve always had a deep love for French house and that early 2000s era of house music, the kind of tracks that were simple, catchy, and just made you feel good instantly. I feel like somewhere along the way, we lost a bit of that playful energy, especially when it comes to hooks that people can sing back without even thinking. ‘Girl’ was my way of tapping back into that – it was one of those sessions that just flowed naturally, no overthinking, just chasing a feeling. I’m really excited for everyone to hear it, especially on Defected, it feels like the perfect home for this kind of sound.” – Jonas Blue
With an undeniably catchy vocal hook supported by addictive guitar patterns and a headsy four-on-the-floor groove, prepare to hear ‘Girl’ across the globe from open-air parties to long club nights throughout 2026 and well beyond.
The year ahead will also see Jonas continue to captivate global attention with his 14-date US tour selling out shows in Los Angeles, New York and Toronto, plus new residencies at Hï Ibiza and Las Vegas and a wealth of new music in the pipeline.
