Raye Joins Jonas Blue For 'By Your Side'

Continuing his reign over 2016, British hitmaker Jonas Blue has released his new single, ‘By Your Side’ feat. RAYE, out today Friday 28th October via Positiva/Virgin EMI.

‘By Your Side’ begins as an emotive, piano-driven record laced with layered strings whilst RAYE’s rich, romantic vocals portrays a young, wild and free love story. The track builds up into a crescendo of electrifying synths propelling into a dancefloor ready beat. London-based singer RAYE has already been turning heads with her eclectic, unique wave of Electro/R&B and prolific collaborations with Stormzy and Charli XCX.

Jonas Blue first flew into the spotlight with his debut single ‘Fast Car’, becoming the biggest selling single this year by a debut UK artist.

Charting at #2 in the UK Official Charts, ‘Fast Car’ spent 11 consecutive weeks in the Top 10, with it peaking at #1 on the iTunes chart in several countries in Europe.
