Alex Warren
Burgeoning pop artist Alex Warren is one of 2025’s breakout stars worldwide. Now boasting an impressive over 4.2B total career streams and over 54M monthly listeners on Spotify, his hit single “Ordinary,” released in February, recently certified Platinum by RIAA, is taking over the world. With over 1 billion streams and counting, the song leads at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for its 10th week and is the top selling song released in 2025 in the US by total units. It also spent 10 weeks as #1 on the Billboard Global 200 songs chart & Global 200 EX US chart and 13 weeks at #1 on the UK songs chart. “Ordinary” is also #1 at Top 40 Radio, and Hot AC Radio, currently holding the largest radio audience. Off the heels of the success of ‘Ordinary,’ Warren released his album You’ll Be Alright, Kid in July. The album features all the songs on You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1), released last fall, alongside 10 entirely new tracks. Amongst these new tracks are Warren’s smash hit “Ordinary,” “Bloodline (with Jelly Roll),” and “On My Mind (with ROSE)”. While You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) focuses on dealing with grief, You’ll Be Alright, Kid turns the page with healing, resilience, and optimism. The album is #5 on the Billboard 200 chart and dominated across charts globally appearing #1 in the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, and Norway.
Alex has delivered soul bearing performances, making his award show debut at the 2025 American Music Awards and most recently taking the stage at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards. He also made his late-night television debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, performed with Ed Sheeran in an underplay at Coachella and joined Jelly Roll during Stagecoach. Adding to his accolades, Alex was named Billboard’s January Chartbreaker with his track “Burning Down” with Joe Jonas joining for a reimagined version. The single marked Alex’s first time breaking onto the Billboard Hot 100, has now amassed over 185 million streams, and reached #1 on the global charts in 8 countries. He follows his record-breaking success with live shows as he recently wrapped his sold out, headlining “Cheaper Than Therapy” Global Tour, hitting 47 cities across Europe and North America. He extended the tour to add 15 more shows this fall.
In 2024, Warren released his acclaimed full-length debut album, You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1), which instantly skyrocketed onto charts around the world. The album is further highlighted by Warren’s global success with another standout platinum certified track, “Carry You Home,” which has garnered over half a billion streams worldwide. Known for his vulnerable pop melodies, passionate vocals, and lyrical candor, Warren has won over fans with these deeply personal singles. He was named to People Magazine’s list of “Talented Emerging Artists Making Their Mark”, Sirius XM’s Artist Accelerator Program, named one of 2025’s artists to watch by both Tidal and Amazon Music and named an iHeart Radio “On The Verge” artist.
John K
John K crafts the kind of songs that stir your best memories, inspire strength, and remind you to live fully—with a smile. With big-screen ambition, intimate honesty, and infectious confidence, the Orlando-based multi-platinum singer-songwriter takes flight with his third studio album, SALT + LIGHT.
Since his emergence, John has earned 1.3 billion streams and 100 million video views across EPs and albums like if we never met [2019], love + everything else [2020], and in case you miss me [2021]. His breakout hit “if we never met” went double-platinum, and he’s collaborated with artists like Kelsea Ballerini, ROSIE, Don Diablo, and Jake Scott. Known for his magnetic stage presence and impeccable live vocals, he’s toured with OneRepublic and Marc E Bassy, performed for 15,000 fans in South Korea, and lit up NBC’s The TODAY Show. His music has earned praise from Billboard, MTV, Rolling Stone, and more.
“I’ve grown into becoming a father and a husband, and my music has grown with me,” he shares. “The goal is still timeless, story-driven songwriting, but now it’s for my wife, my family, and myself.”
SALT + LIGHT sees John pushing new boundaries. “I was challenging myself creatively. Fatherhood made me more present and efficient,” he explains. “Now, I create from a deeper, more intentional place.”
The album’s story starts with its title–”SALT + LIGHT lives in the contrast,” John observes. “Between stages and living rooms, applause and bedtime stories, chasing dreams and kissing boo boos. For the last four years, I’ve been building a life that’s deeply rooted in family. When I’m home, I’m all in. Present. Grounded. Fully theirs. And then I leave—to go chase the thing I’ve loved my whole life: music. I go on tour. I pour myself into rooms full of strangers. And that contrast—it’s beautiful and brutal. It stretches me. It makes me honest.”
Lead single “Honey” glides with funky bass and sweet harmonies. ““It’s about anxiety,” he reveals. “When you’re going through something heavy, you call somebody—whether it’s your mom, boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife, grandma, grandpa, or whoever. On the call, you’re safe and nothing can hurt you. ‘Honey’ is what my wife and I call each other. During an intense trip to L.A., I called her, and she said, ‘Honey, don’t worry about it’. I just felt better.”
“Never Been In Love” flashes with video game-style keys and anthemic energy. Inspired by a text to his wife, it celebrates love so powerful it eclipses the past.
“I texted my wife, ‘How did you feel when we first met?’ She wrote back in real-time and said, ‘Like I’ve never been in love before’,” he recalls. “It’s about meeting somebody and falling so hard that you forget everyone you met before because you want to live the rest of your life with this person.”
On “River,” gentle guitar and soft percussion support the truth, “Maybe that’s why there’s a waterfall at the end of the river.” John reflects, “Life is beautiful because it’s not forever. Be present. Enjoy the ride.”
Album closer “Love Of My Life” is an intimate acoustic ballad capturing the warmth of lasting romance, while highlight “Here’s The Plan” lays out a future grounded in love and intention. “It’s about knowing who you are and showing up for the people who matter most.”
John K is only shining brighter than ever now. “I want every word I’m singing to be believable,” he leaves off. “My biggest hope is to connect. I hope the tension, pain, growth, and love come out in this beautiful way. I want to write songs you can play at your wedding and keep coming back to for the rest of your life. I’m grateful for every day I get to pursue this. I’m taking notice of all the beauty around me, and I’m excited to bring this music to the world.”
