GRiZ Returning to Music After Indefinite Hiatus: "We Are So Back"

GRiZ has officially ended an indefinite hiatus with an unexpected announcement delivered via rural Americana. The electronic music superstar released a video today showing himself commandeering a tractor across open farmland before declaring he’s “back to work.”

The cryptic clip concludes with an aerial reveal of hay bales arranged to display the dates “10/10/25 – 10/12/25,” suggesting a three-day event that fans are already speculating could be a new GRiZ-curated music festival. While details remain under wraps, the October 2025 timeframe gives fans ample time to register for updates and plan ahead.

The video also features a preview of a new dubstep track with a fitting pre-drop vocal: “I’m back.” Beloved for his funk-infused bass, saxophone prowess and high-energy live shows, GRiZ in June 2023 announced a hiatus from music, citing a desire to travel and spend more time with loved ones.

“Life is really good, and often I make myself too busy to see just where I am and how far the project has come,” he said at the time. “I’m following my gut instincts so for now, I’m not going to put a hard time limit length on the break… I’m excited to take time to travel, find fresh inspiration, write music and to be in a new headspace.”
