About 2hollis —
2hollis is the Los Angeles-based artist, producer and songwriter at the forefront of a new generation reshaping contemporary music. Equal parts architect and avatar, he has become a defining figure in the underground-to-mainstream pipeline; an artist turning online mythology, club catharsis, and vulnerable pop instincts into a fully realized world. Pairing emotional songwriting with chest-caving production that blurs the lines of underground electronic, rap, alternative and pop, he has made an indelible mark in multiple music scenes over the past few years.
His 2025 major-label debut, star, marked a pinnacle breakthrough, earning critical acclaim, tens of millions of streams and world wide shows. In the months that followed, 2hollis sold out a North American headline tour, completed two sold out European run, made his debut at major festivals including Coachella and Lollapalooza, Stereogum and Consequence ultimately named star among the best albums of the year and Pitchfork praised it as “ambitious, stadium-sized, and risky,” naming the single “Flash” as one of the 100 best songs of 2025. On the way, he’s also received praise from outlets like GQ, Rolling Stone, i-D, 032C, The Face, The New York Times, 032c, Dazed, and more.
After developing his chops by making electronic music in his bedroom as a young teen, his first songs as 2hollis announced a knack for reshaping a universe of influences in his image. Early projects like 2022’s White Tiger and 2023’s 2 established him as one of the underground’s great experimenters. But 2024’s boy and star in 2025 show how he can utilize these boundary-pushing instincts to create immediate, resonant pop music that speaks to fans all around the world.
As 2hollis moves forward, he’s being pulled into other orbits, too. He’s become an in-demand collaborator, teasing upcoming work with rap innovators like former tourmate Ken Carson, the latter of whom tapped 2hollis to reinvent star’s “girl” for his own album xperiment with the instantly popular “shadeson” track.
With a rapidly growing global audience, major touring milestones and increasing demand as a collaborator, 2hollis is emerging as one pop music’s newest and most exciting vanguards. His sold-out shows converging with his online community has only sharpened that mythology in real time, with live shows that feel less like traditional concerts than full-body detonations — rave, mosh pit, pop spectacle, and fan ritual all colliding around his kinetic stage presence.
