The Chainsmokers
The Chainsmokers are a New York City-based duo consisting of Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall. They write and produce their songs, and often feature guest vocalists.
The duo rose to fame with their 2014 viral hit, “#Selfie” and then broke into the mainstream with their hit song “Roses” and their debut EP Bouquet.
In a March 2016 YouTube video, the duo talked about plans to release songs featuring their vocals. This was proven when “Closer” was released on July 2016 with Andrew Taggart as co-vocalist, alongside American singer-songwriter Halsey. “Closer” became both The Chainsmokers and Halsey’s most famous song.
