Alexander Stewart is a Toronto-born singer-songwriter who has amassed over a billion streams globally and has been named as one of Spotify’s Pop Rising Artists To Watch. His new album What If? is out now and includes “Friends Don’t” featuring Lauren Spencer Smith, which has racked up over 7 million global streams and was included in NYLON’s best new music of the week saying, “The emotion in this duet is just too potent to resist.” The album also features “Blame on You,” which Rolling Stone named as one of their Songs You Need To Know upon release, “Here Again” and “The Way a Heart Breaks”.

What If? serves as the follow up to Alexander’s debut album bleeding heart, which included his viral single “i wish you cheated” that skyrocketed to over 45 million views on TikTok and led to his late-night TV debut performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The album earned Alexander his first JUNO Award nominations for “Breakthrough Artist of the Year” and “Pop Album of the Year,” as well as his first MTV VMA nomination for “Video for Good” with his song “if you only knew.” Following the release of the album, Alexander claimed his first #1 on the US Dance Charts with “Wrong Way,” a collaboration with the acclaimed DJ duo Two Friends. This year, Alexander was awarded 2 SOCAN Awards for Best Viral Song and Best Dance.

In support of the new album, Alexander will embark on a global headlining tour, which kicks off this November in the UK and Europe and will hit North America in the Spring 2026. Previously, he’s toured with Charlie Puth, Benson Boone, and Eric Nam, growing his fanbase that has expanded to over one billion global streams, over 400 million YouTube views and over 165 million likes on TikTok.

Born and raised in both Los Angeles and Malibu, rising singer/songwriter NERIAH never holds back. With a natural knack for storytelling, the L.A. native spent hours telling stories and singing as she drove up and down the coast. Having previously grown a large following for her intimate YouTube vlogs (~50k), her vulnerable self-expression began at the age of five when she wrote her very first song. 

The last few years saw her honing her musical talents as she wrote three songs a day in the process of recording her debut EP and an upcoming catalog of originals. Since releasing her debut single in March of this year, NERIAH’s sat as the cover of Spotify's Fresh Finds Pop, headlined NextFestLA and The Peppermint Club, and saw a World First premiere on Zane Lowe’s World Record show for her single “Missing Somebody.” 

She currently boasts over 1M monthly Spotify listeners, 175k Instagram followers and over 165K TikTok fans. She’s also headlined a sold-out show at The Troubadour and is performing at three iHeart festivals as a sub-headliner, including Atlanta (10/8) and Arizona (10/28, 11/4). Most recently, she sat with iHeart’s EJ and JOJO Wright, resulting in “Unfinished Business”—which pulled in 15k+ pre-saves after going viral on TikTok—being played on the KIIS-FM as well as other iHeart stations across North America.

With her eight-track sophomore EP, How Do I Get Clean, set for release on 10/14, NERIAH shows no signs of slowing down and will be steadily releasing new music over the next few months, including the EP’s follow-up single “SH!TSHOW” on 11/11.
