WILLOW

Grammy nominated musician, actress, author, and creative WILLOW is at the forefront of redefining musical boundaries and setting new standards of innovation and authenticity. WILLOW has established herself as this generation’s eclectic musical trailblazer. Her unique blend of introspective lyrics, ethereal melodies, and powerful collaborations cements her as a boundary-pushing artist, resonating with audiences and leaving an indelible mark on the contemporary music landscape.

WILLOW has built a critically acclaimed discography traversing a breadth of sounds, from neo-soul (2015’s Ardipithecus) and psychedelic folk (2019’s WILLOW), to pop-punk (2021’s lately I feel EVERYTHING) and experimental hard rock (2022’s ). Her sixth album, empathogen, pushed the envelope even further.

Produced by WILLOW, Eddie Benjamin and Chris Greatti, empathogen is a genre-bending album. Inspired by a meditative mix of jazz, classical and indigenous tribal music, with features from Jon Batiste and St. Vincent, it sees WILLOW tapping into “ancestral energy” to evoke a sense of mystery, playfulness and depth. Coming off the back of two heavy guitar albums and countless achievements, including 1B streams on sleeper hit “Wait A Minute,” empathogen, which earned WILLOW two Grammy nominations and debuted at #1 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz Album chart, brings things back to earth. With soul searching lyrics and her vocals taking center stage, WILLOW has created something truer to herself than ever before.

Up next, she is set to executive produce and voice roles in anime films alongside her brother Jaden under the N LITE umbrella. The Black-owned media company and anime studio has WILLOW signed onto their horror/thriller WEBE: SPIRIT DETECTIVE which is inspired by Gullah Geechee folklore. She also recently joined the cast of SLIME, an anime-inspired pre-apocalyptic sci-fi monster film. She will be seen alongside Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi, Teyana Taylor, Anna Sawai, John Cho and John Boyega.
