Marshmello and Country superstar Jelly Roll have teamed up for new single ‘Holy Water', which is out today via Mercury Records/Big Loud Records.
For the song Marshmello challenged himself to craft a classic Country soundscape, incorporating 12-string guitar, baritone guitar and mandolin into the mix. Add Jelly's distinctive vocals and it sounds like they have a hit on their hands.
Of the song, Marshmello said, “It’s really heartfelt. This is one of the most emotional songs I’ve ever released. It’s about losing a loved one. Unfortunately, a lot of us can relate to that. When I showed the initial idea to Jelly Roll and told him the story, he loved it. He’s an open book, and it was really great to see how it resonated. It inspired me to go in even more on the production and get creative with the country elements. He definitely brought it home to where it is now.”
‘Holy Water' marks the second country leaning collaboration from the genre bending artist and producer who first made history in the genre when he collaborated with Kane Brown for ‘Miles On It'.
The release showcases Marshmello’s ability to seamlessly traverse genres and arrives on the heels of earlier 2025 releases including ‘Worlds Apart' [feat. Feat. AR/CO] and ‘Save My Love' [with Ellie Goulding & AVAION], and ‘Slow Motion' [with Jonas Brothers].
