Knox

Growing up, Knox knew he had an interest in music more than the average kid. His

teenage years were soundtracked by artists such as Fall Out Boy and Ed Sheeran, and

the summer before he started college, Knox taught himself guitar. He began playing

open mic nights and by his sophomore year, his musical ambitions were so

all-consuming that he dropped out of school, moved in with his grandma, and saved up

money to move to Nashville. He made the leap in January 2019.

Knox used Covid isolation to work on his craft. The focus paid off: Knox signed a

publishing deal in 2022, but was struck with the urge to record songs he had been

working on. The result was How to Lose a Girl in 7 Songs, Knox’s debut EP, released

February 2023. Knox filmed TikToks featuring his song “Sneakers”, and amassed nearly

2M views overnight. “Sneakers” now has over 38M streams. Another fan favorite track,

“Not The 1975,” cracked the Top 20 at Top 40 radio and Top 10 at Hot AC and adorned

his 2023 EP, I’m So Good At Being Alone? Gaining further traction, he landed a

SESAC Songwriter Award for “Not The 1975” and appeared on the red carpet at the

MTV VMA. Along the way, he garnered acclaim from the likes of Billboard and

collaborated with everyone from Bilmuri, Rosie and HARDY.
