Kevin Atwater is a Chicago-born singer-songwriter based in New York City. Kevin started
posting his music online in early 2022 and quickly built a fanbase drawn to his uniquely honest
and intimate songwriting. A video of him performing his single “star tripping” was posted to
TikTok in July 2022 and went viral, accumulating over 2.1 million views. Kevin continued posting
his demos in full, each receiving at minimum hundreds of thousands of views and gaining the
attention and support of notable artists like MUNA, Lizzy McAlpine, and Noah Kahan.
Kevin released his debut EP Downers Grove on April 26, 2023, which has since garnered over
15 million streams across platforms. His follow-up single “why did you invite me to your
wedding” gained significant demand from his audience on social media after several videos on
TikTok reached over 3 million views collectively and has streamed over half a million times
across platforms. During this time, he also spent time on the road supporting Jeremy Zucker,
Leith Ross, and Searows on their tours.
In 2025, Kevin released his debut album Achilles, which garnered more than 10 million streams
across all DSPs, sold out his debut headline North American tour, and premiered a short film
inspired by his viral song “why did you invite me to your wedding” in New York City. 2026 is
poised to be a breakout year for Kevin as he works on his second full-length project, Blush Red,
coming July 10th.
