About Conan Gray

Conan Lee Gray (born December 5, 1998) is an American singer, songwriter, and former YouTuber who has emerged as a distinct voice in the pop, indie pop, and bedroom pop genres. Born in California, he spent part of his childhood in Japan before his parents divorced and he settled in Georgetown, Texas. As a teenager, he gained a significant following on YouTube by uploading vlogs, covers, and original songs, which often drew inspiration from his life in a small town. His music career exploded after signing with Republic Records, with his debut album, Kid Krow (2020), debuting at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 and featuring the hugely successful platinum-selling singles "Maniac" and "Heather." Known for his candid, deeply emotional lyrics that tap into the experiences of Gen Z, his songs explore themes of young love, heartbreak, and identity. With subsequent successful albums like Superache and Found Heaven, Conan Gray is critically acclaimed for his artistic authenticity and ability to translate personal vulnerabilities into universally resonant pop anthems.
