"Hollow" is a song recorded by American producer and DJ Marshmello and Canadian singer Cameron Whitcomb. The song was written by Connor McDonough, Riley McDonough, Jake Torrey, Marshmello, Earwulf, and Joel Castillo, while the latter three produced the track.
Background "Hollow" continued a string of 2025-2026 collaborations between Marshmello and country singers, including "Another Drink". It also marked Whitcomb's second collaboration with a DJ, following "Would U Still Love Me" earlier in 2026.
Critical reception David Pierce of Today's Country Magazine favourably reviewed "Hollow", stating that it is "polished, emotionally persuasive single that finds uncommon warmth in the space between confession and collapse" and opining that it is "sleek enough for pop and dance audiences, grounded enough to satisfy country-leaning listeners, and specific enough to avoid the anonymity that can haunt cross-genre experiments." Heather Taylor-Singh of Billboard Canada described the song as "an intimate track that culminates in a heartfelt chorus," noting that Whitcomb's "gritty delivery is layered with shimmering neon synths and a pulsating four-on-the-floor beat." Aryn Honaker of Mxdwn opined that the song "exists somewhere between a melancholic, almost nostalgic tune and a catchy, bouncy track to dance to."
