A Canadian singer-songwriter who turned teenage guitar videos into a string of chart-topping singles.
For a quick sense of his sound, 'Stitches' and 'Señorita' cover a lot of ground. They're both straightforward pop songs that just work.
He's one of those artists who came up through social media in a way that felt real, not manufactured. 'Stitches' was the song that made him impossible to ignore, a pop-rock hit that got stuck in your head for months. Later tracks like 'Señorita' with Camila Cabello showed he could handle a steamy duet just as well as a breakup anthem.
It started with guitar covers on Vine when he was 13 in Pickering, Ontario. By 2014 he had a record deal, and 'Handwritten' went to number one in 2015. He's put out three more albums since, including 'Wonder' in 2020.
