A California singer-songwriter who moved from stage to studio with hits like Hold You Up.
For a quick sense of his range, listen to the bright pop of Hold You Up and then the more reflective tone of Just Friends. They bookend different chapters pretty well.
Harper's music captures that specific moment when Disney Channel pop was giving way to something more personal. Hold You Up became a genuine hit in 2012, and songs like Dancin' In The Rain and Just Friends show a writer figuring out his own voice within a polished pop framework. There's a lived-in quality to his later work that feels more grounded than his early teen-pop material.
He started in the Broadway production of Spring Awakening before releasing his debut single Dance with Me in 2010. The 2012 hit Hold You Up led to his self-titled debut album, and he followed with another album, Like I Did, in 2016. His catalog includes holiday tracks like We Need a Little Christmas alongside personal songs like See You Around.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
