Kehlani Ashley Parrish is an Oakland-born R&B and neo-soul singer-songwriter who turned a childhood of hardship into one of the most compelling careers in contemporary music. After finishing fourth on America's Got Talent as a teen, surviving homelessness, and years of near-misses with mainstream recognition, she finally broke through with 'Folded' - a Grammy-winning hit that charted in the top 10 for 33 weeks in 2026 and led to her landmark self-titled album. Known for radical emotional honesty, political outspokenness, and a voice that channels Brandy and Erykah Badu simultaneously, Kehlani has become both a commercial force and a genuine cultural touchstone for queer communities and R&B lovers worldwide.
Snow Wife (Emily Leann Snow) is a queer hyperpop and maximalist dance-pop artist based in Los Angeles who broke out in 2023 with the viral single 'American Horror Show' (55M+ Spotify streams) and her debut EP QUEEN DEGENERATE (146M+ total streams). A trained dancer of 10+ years turned bedroom songwriter, she launched her celebrated 'Bodyology era' in 2025 with the EP BODYOLOGY — her most ambitious project, blending club music, dance choreography, and queer pop maximalism. With nearly 900K monthly Spotify listeners, a Governors Ball 2025 performance, a Gold House Future Music Accelerator selection, and major press coverage from Rolling Stone, SPIN, The FADER, and Nylon, Snow Wife has become one of indie pop's most exciting rising voices.
Sophia Stel is a 27-year-old Vancouver-based Canadian alt-pop artist, singer, and self-producer whose music blends dreamy synths, auto-tuned alto vocals, skittering breakbeats, and rave-adjacent textures into something critics call the 'sonic lovechild of Ethel Cain and 070 Shake.' Growing up on Vancouver Island in a large religious household with 10 siblings, she taught herself production on GarageBand before building a makeshift studio in a nightclub basement. After years of bartending to fund her art, she broke through with her 2024 debut EP Object Permanence, scored a viral TikTok moment with 'I'll Take It' (8.6M+ Spotify streams), walked the Ann Demeulemeester SS26 runway, graced the NME cover, and in early 2026 became only the second artist signed to A24 Music - all while recording mostly from home on a 2013 MacBook.
