Marc Scibilia is an internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter whose music has amassed more than 200 million streams worldwide. With a devoted social media following of over 3 million fans, Marc sold out every date on his debut US headline tour in 2024 and repeated the feat on his 2025 More To This World Tour, performing sold-out shows across Europe, the US and Canada. His music has been certified gold and topped charts throughout Europe. Born and raised in Buffalo, New York, Marc’s forthcoming work draws heavily from his hometown roots. Buffalo serves as both the backdrop and emotional centerpiece of his recent singles “No One Knows My Name” and “By Your Side,” two melancholic reflections on the blue-collar community that shaped him. His next studio album, due in 2027, further explores Marc’s distinctly American sound, blending folk, country, alternative and pop into songs steeped in warmth, nostalgia and emotional honesty. Marc’s music has been featured in Shrinking, Peter Rabbit, Bones and About a Boy, alongside campaigns for brands including Jeep, Chrysler, Samsung and Water.org. Beyond his solo work, he has built an extensive career as a songwriter and producer, collaborating with artists including Teddy Swims, Keith Urban, Lainey Wilson, Ian Munsick, Robin Schulz, Quinn XCII, Claptone, Ingrid Andress, Seal, Ben Rector and Lennon Stella. Marc returns to the road in 2026 supporting Teddy Swims across major markets before launching his own global headlining tour later in the year.

It’s been seven years since Kelsey Lu released their debut album Blood , a baroque, cello-led exorcism that introduced a singular voice moving between the sacred and the sensual. Seven years after the release of their debut album Blood , a baroque, cello-led exorcism that introduced a singular voice moving between the sacred and the sensual, Kelsey Lu returns with So Help Me God . Due June 2026 via Dirty Hit, the 10-track album is Lu’s most fearless and fully realised work to date. Co-produced by Lu, Jack Antonoff and Yves Rothman and mixed by Oli Jacobs, features contributions from Sampha, Kamasi Washington,Lady Jess and Kim Gordon. It is not a healing record. It is a reckoning. Across its ten songs, Lu traces a landscape of transformation — where devotion, desire, grief and transcendence collapse into one another. “A lot has happened in the past seven years, a lot of healing and growth,” Lu says. “But this isn’t really a healing album. It’s more of a reckoning. It’s about facing the parts of myself I tried to move past, and realizing they were still shaping everything. This album is me standing in that truth instead of trying to transcend it.” If Blood was an introduction - lush, devotional, orchestral - So Help Me God is an arrival. Harder. Hungrier. Willing to sit in the dark. In 2020, during a residency at Palm Heights , , Lu set up a studio on the first day, ready to begin again. When they reached for the only cello they had ever owned for the past 20 years, it cracked in their hands. “It felt really symbolic,” they recall. “I went into a deep mourning state. It holds memories. It holds energy. And suddenly, that was gone.” The world outside was collapsing too. It was the early months of COVID. Borders closed. Flights cancelled. Lu was stranded on the island - strict lockdown laws meant stepping outside could mean fines or jail time; helicopters and drones circled overhead while police cars patrolled the streets. Music became survival. Each morning before sunrise, Lu would slip out, sometimes hopping a fence into the grounds of an abandoned structure to film the dawn. Each evening they documented the sunset, sharing the moments online in a series that became HYDROHARMONIA - a daily ritual of sound and image meant to counter the dread and endless doomscrolling of that moment. “I documented every sunrise and every sunset,” Lu says. “It was a way to cope with whatever the fuck was going on.” *add onto the end of this quote* "My instinctual drive and method of survival was to turn to nature and the only other thing I've ever known to keep me alive, music." What followed were years of movement - London, upstate New York, Indonesia, Los Angeles - and a spiritual deep dive through reiki, dreamwork, plant medicine, breathwork and water cleansing ceremonies. Relationships dissolved and reformed. Faith collapsed and reassembled in new shapes. They stepped away from the major label system. Isolation became both a wound and teacher. *i think adding a before wound gives it a slightly softer feel* “Reckoning with the fact that I’ve felt isolated and alone for most of my life,” Lu reflects. “Making this record has been crawling out of that well.” That sense of emergence runs through So Help Me God . Sonically, it is meticulous and cinematic - light and shadow moving across drum & bass pulses, distorted guitars, choral swells and dark electronic textures. There are echoes of post-punk austerity, devotional minimalism and flashes of arena-scale pop. In Los Angeles, Lu connected with Rothman before later expanding the collaboration with Antonoff. Initially hesitant after past experiences with high-profile male producers, Lu found something different here: play. “I knew it was right when I was under the hood of the piano with a paintbrush on the strings and he was at the drums with another paintbrush,” Lu says. “It was in that moment when I realized how much I missed that kind of connection - playtime and collaboration.” That spirit of communion ripples across the album. On opener “Reaper,” Gordon, Antonoff, Zem Audu, Lady Jess and Washington weave saxophone, violin and shredded guitar into something feral and ecstatic. A children’s choir in Rome rises on “Cutting Off the Head of a Ghost,” originally written with Patrick Wimberly for Arcane — a moment of queer tenderness refracted into something mythic. Lead single “Running To Pain” is devotional and dangerous at once: a cry to God for the thing you know will undo you. “When I fall back on my knees and I can’t let go / when that look of desperation calls out my name,” Lu sings. Visually, Lu drew inspiration from the stark chiaroscuro of Caravaggio - bodies emerging from darkness, divinity rendered in flesh and bruise. That same tension animates the music: on “Only the Lonely,” Lu’s voice slices through urgent, drum & bass-inspired production. “I disagree with the way that you loved me,” they sing. On “Portrait of a Lady On Fire,” inspired by the film Portrait of a Lady on Fire , longing burns slow and incandescent. Born in North Carolina and based in New York City, Lu has long moved fluidly between sound, image, healing and performance, expanding the possibilities of contemporary artistry. A composer as much as a songwriter, their work includes original scores for Netflix’s award-winning documentary Daughters and A24’s BAFTA-winning Earth Mama , alongside commissions across fashion and film. Their creative universe spans collaborations with visionaries such as Yves Tumor, Jamie xx, Debbie Harry and Skrillex, alongside artistic partnerships with Nan Goldin, Wu Tsang and Jacolby Satterwhite, and brands including Gucci, Miu Miu and Bottega Veneta. The project also unfolds visually through a collaborative sequence of short films inspired by So Help Me God . The album is accompanied by a short film created in collaboration with BAFTA-award-winning director Savanah Leaf, starring French actor Garance Marillier with official photography by Yuma Al-Arashi. Together, the record and film form a single narrative work, reinforcing Lu’s position at the intersection of music, fine art and culture. “I disappeared for a while, even from myself,” Lu says. “There was a lot of grieving. But on the other side of that, I found people again. I found play again.” So Help Me God does not offer easy answers. It offers something braver: surrender. It begins in fracture and moves toward something harder won: connection.

Press [Acknowledge] to agree and proceed. New Constellations is the ethereal meeting point of two lifelong creative friends: Harlee Case and Josh Smith. Their sound merges hook-forward melodies, textured guitar work, and vocals that radiate a deep warmth, grounded in lyrics that are reflective and vacillate between endlessly hopeful and quietly devastating. Harlee’s unmistakable rasp cuts through that softness, adding a vivid emotional edge and shaping a dream-pop world that pulls listeners in with gravitational force. Harlee and Josh’s creative story began at fourteen, when they recorded a song in Josh’s childhood bedroom, a quiet spark that foreshadowed the artistic chemistry they would later cultivate. After more than a decade spent developing their own musical identities, the pair reunited with a renewed sense of vision, forming what would become New Constellations. Their debut single, “Hot Blooded,” wasn’t an overnight phenomenon but a rare slow-burn success, an emotionally charged voyage that quietly found its audience and then caught fire through pure, organic word of mouth. Over time, the song’s warmth and vulnerability sparked a groundswell of fan devotion, ultimately surpassing 100 million streams (and still going strong) , inspiring more than 100,000 pieces of fan-created content , and earning viral moments including a Reddit front-page breakout, usage by Vanity Fair, Vogue and multiple shoutouts from Pedro Pascal. The duo’s ascent has continued with a run of major milestones: high-profile sync placements ( Good Trouble , Apple TV’s Surface , ESPRIT’s campaign, and the feature film Scrambled ), festival appearances, and collaborations with international producers. Onstage, their transportive, emotionally charged live performance has fueled 30+ sold-out U.S. headline shows following a support run with Cannons and a 700-cap West Coast headline tour. They now extend that momentum into the global festival circuit with a main stage slot at Lollapalooza (U.S.) , a key appearance at BottleRock , and a European/UK run slated for late 2026 , marking the beginning of their international expansion. With their debut full length album due May 15 th 2026, New Constellations are shaping the next chapter of their shimmering universe, continuing to refine the gilded alchemy that transformed a childhood friendship into one of dream-pop’s most compelling emerging voices.

After years of playing in bars in his native Australia, Hazlett’s unique brand of “Indie Ballroom Folk” only became crystallized after a chance encounter during a runaway trip to Sweden. It was there he found the fabled collaborator chemistry in close friend Freddy Alexander. A lot has changed since then and what started as just writing songs to “figure out some things in his head…” has now become a whole world of music and beautiful details to move through. Emphasized by the release of his debut album Bloom Mountain in early 2023. His propensity for figuring things out himself and turning chaos into some kind of nostalgic lesson hasn’t gone unnoticed either, with The Line of Best Fit noting that "Hazlett is offering up a hazy, textured version of the classic singer-songwriter sound" Even though the nerves never quite go away, there’s this newfound quiet confidence to the troubadour from the land down under. You may not have met, but sometimes when you’re listening to Hazlett he feels like the only friend you’ve ever had. Artist tone of voice blurb : “The honest truth… I’m just one heck of an emotional, stubborn, simple, romantic guy. I rarely like socialising with large groups of people. My circle’s small. I can’t blow smoke up other people’s behinds for a leg up or their attention. I’d rather help people sort out their own life, instead of my own. I love all creative people but I’m inspired and jealous of them at the same time. I’m a little broken just like you. I am the way I am and at the end of the day people are going to like what I do or they are going to hate it. Either way this thing goes, at least it’s going to be honest and from the heart” Lots of love, Haz x

Sawyer Hill's soaring baritone voice halts you in your tracks and will one day shake the rafters of the most iconic venues. The diamond-in-the-rough rocker hailing from Fayetteville, Arkansas is cutting through with Gen Z listeners on Instagram and TikTok where he's amassed an audience of nearly 400k followers thanks to an unexpected sound influenced by Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains. The clever lyrical hook and refreshingly contemporary take on 90s rock guitar riffs in his song "Look At The Time" ("when you say that I'm the only one, did you mean that I'm the closest one around?") propelled it to the top of the Spotify US Viral Chart. He is currently finishing up his debut EP and hitting the road where the fervor is coming to life with Sawyer selling out 200-300 cap rooms across cities in Arkansas, Dallas, and Austin.
