After turning heads with an early mixtape, Quinn XCII’s debut EP “Change Of Scenery” in 2015 put him on the map, snaring millions of online streams and viral coverage across the blogosphere. His follow up EP “Bloom” then cemented his ability to meld styles and write on a variety of subject matter. But it wasn’t until his appearance as a feature vocalist on the track “Kings of Summer” by long-time friend and producer ayokay thrust him into the mainstream. The track became the sleeper summer hit in 2016 reaching #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral Charts and on HypeMachine.
Having signed with Columbia Records, Quinn XCII’s debut album “The Story of Us” was released in September 2017 with its lead single “Straightjacket” racking up almost 35 million streams on Spotify to date, where he has over 3.3 million monthly listeners. After selling out two full North American headline tours in support of the album and with upcoming festival performances such Governors Ball 2018 (NYC) alongside N.E.R.D., Khalid and Post Malone, the 25-year-old makes his way to Australia and New Zealand in a debut that’s not to be missed.
