Oli Sykes of Bring Me the Horizon and Courtney LaPlante of Spiritbox are collaborating on a new song titled ‘If the Sun Burns Out Tonight’. Produced by EDM artist Grabbitz, the track is set to become the anthem for the 2026 Valorant Champions Tour.
Sykes described the project as a natural fit for his interest in blurring the lines between music and storytelling. LaPlante noted that the collaboration was a true team effort, with Grabbitz tailoring the atmosphere to the unique voices of the three artists. Grabbitz added that the track blends electronic elements with the heavy musical styles of both Sykes and LaPlante.
