Hood
Born and raised in Daphne, Alabama, Hood went from tirelessly posting content on social media to signing a record deal with Arista, landing representation from William Morris Endeavor, and making his debut festival performance at Hangout Fest in his hometown of Alabama in May 2022, the only Alabama native on the bill. In addition, Hood released his debut EP BLOSSOM, which included previous hit singles: “when she was mine” “never knew a heart could break itself,” and “lonely isn’t the word for this. Variance noted that “BLOSSOM offers a glimpse of a future star.” Hood now resides in Los Angeles and has about two million monthly listeners on Spotify, with well over 300 million streams across platforms.
“I’m just a kid from Alabama who stayed true to himself,” says Hood. “I never let anyone get in my way, I persevered, and I stayed on my path. I just absolutely had to make music.”
