Trevor Daniel inhabits his songs like a method actor. He recalls exactly where he was, what he saw, and how he felt, replaying each moment and memory with a vivid level of lyrical detail. His music projects a first-person perspective, immersing his entire being through smoked-out alternative pop soundscapes boosted by trap grit.
Through the haze, the Houston-born multi- platinum singer, songwriter, and producer forges an unbreakable bond with his listeners.
In 2018, he caught the attention of Internet Money founder and super-producer Taz Taylor [XXXTentacion, Juice WRLD]. Together, they cooked up “Falling” with KCsupreme and Charlie Handsome. The track took the internet and the culture by storm, generating 1.4 billion Spotify streams, going 4x platinum, and cracking the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100.
By 2020, he dropped his full-length debut, Nicotine, which immediately incited tastemaker praise from Ones to Watch, Wonderland, Teen Vogue, and more, with Rolling Stone christening him “a truly modern star.” On its heels, he teamed up with Selena Gomez for the gold-certified “Past Life,” generating hundreds of millions of streams in the process.
Collaborations followed with Summer Walker, Julia Michaels, blackbear, Ty Dolla $ign, Bebe Rexha, Becky G, Zara Larsson, Travis Barker, Don Diablo, and more. Along the way, he contributed to The SpongeBob Movie soundtrack and performed at Lollapalooza, FVDED In The Park, Life Is Beautiful, Outside Lands, Firefly, and more.
