About the Artist
Audiences and fellow musicians call Jacob Collier one of the most gifted artists on the scene, and he has a seemingly endless list of achievements to back it up, including five Grammy wins along with 11 nominations, including for Album of the Year in 2021. His quickly growing roster of collaborators is astoundingly vibrant—Collier has added his voice to recent songs by Coldplay, SZA, Stormzy, and Kehlani, and on his own projects, the 28-year-old has worked with powerhouses ranging from Malian singer Oumou Sangaré to John Mayer, T-Pain, Ty Dolla $ign, Daniel Caesar, and Tori Kelly. Since the viral success of his multi-instrumental YouTube covers and his 2016 debut album In My Room, Collier has found a natural progression from those one-man efforts to his current four-album epic, Djesse, an ambitious promise featuring an incredible array of peers and themes that encompass everything from orchestral composition to folk songwriting, R&B, rap, and pop.
“Siblings Clyde and Gracie Lawrence are not your typical pair” deadpans NPR—they’ve been writing songs and playing Stevie Wonder, Randy Newman, and Aretha Franklin records on repeat since they were little kids. Years on, they officially founded the band Lawrence, an eight-piece soul-pop outfit that’s won a devoted following with tight, energetic horns and explosive vocals layered on their keyboard-driven sound. Having toured with the likes of Lake Street Dive, Vulfpeck, Jon Bellion, Jacob Collier, Soulive, and O.A.R., they’ve also tallied tens of millions of streams with their 2021 album Hotel TV and single “Don’t Lose Sight,” as well as multiple viral moments across TikTok and Instagram.
Tiny Habits is an acoustic, folk-pop trio focused on three-part harmonies and a beautifully intimate vibe. Building on praise for their stunning, lush arrangements from the likes of David Crosby, Marcus Mumford, Phoebe Bridgers, Jacob Collier, Joe Jonas, and Andy Grammer, Tiny Habits have since collaborated with Mark Ronson and JP Saxe, as well as Lizzy McAlpine, who they supported on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts. They have also performed and toured with Eloise, Alexander 23, Ingrid Michaelson, and Lawrence, and are recording their first studio EP.
