Released in May of that year by indie label Monstercat, his single "Alone", peaked at number 28 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and received quintuple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In 2017, after releasing the singles "Chasing Colors", "Twinbow" and "Moving On", Comstock collaborated with R&B singer Khalid to release the single "Silence", which received platinum or multi-platinum certifications in eight countries. Later that year, he saw similar success with his collaborative single with singer Selena Gomez, "Wolves".

In 2018, he released "Friends", a collaboration with British singer Anne-Marie. Months later, his second studio album, Joytime II (2018), was supported by the singles "Tell Me" and "Check This Out". "Happier", a collaboration with British band Bastille, was released that August and became his highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number two.
