The Michigan artist blends electronic beats with pop songwriting, from early EPs to collaborations with Big Sean and Alexander 23.
For a good sense of his lane, try 'Flare Guns' or 'Feel Something.' They've got that electronic pulse but still feel like proper songs.
His 2015 debut EP 'Change of Scenery' introduced a sound that kept evolving, and the single 'Straightjacket' from the following year caught real attention. Songs like 'Flare Guns' and 'We don't talk enough' show how he mixes electronic production with straightforward pop melodies. He's mentioned John Mayer, Bon Iver, and Coldplay as influences, which makes sense when you hear the way he writes.
He started making electronic music as a teenager under his real name, Miguel Atkins. The first album was called 'The Story of Us,' and later ones included 'From Michigan with Love' and 'Change of Pace.' You can hear the shifts in songs like 'Common' with Big Sean and the more recent 'Tough' with Noah Kahan.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
