Gia Margaret finds lightness on new single, "Good Friend"

05 March 2026, 17:32 | Written by Kayla Sandiford

Chicago-based artist Gia Margaret has released "Good Friend", the latest track from her upcoming album, Singing.

"Good Friend" follows lead single "Everyone Around Me Dancing", released last month. The track was recorded with Frou Frou’s Guy Sigsworth, who helped Margaret bring her ideas together to create the final piece — which includes a Gregorian chant by ILĀ and turntable scratches.

“I wrote ‘Good Friend’ in late 2019, after my first bigger US tour. I remember that it felt like glimpse of what my next album could be. It was fun and light in a way I hadn’t yet expressed with music. Little did I know, my next album(s) would be a result of cancelled tours and uncertain feelings about the future. I unearthed this song when I needed lightness in my creative process while recording ‘Singing’.  It reminds me of what my good friends bring to my life during the worst of it. (And that music can be a good friend too.) It was produced by Guy Sigsworth and myself and a product of all things nostalgic to me. A little nod to the late 90s and my everlasting appreciation for weaving Gregorian Chant into pop music.”
