Theo Kandel’s music is a tapestry, with each song woven together like a thread of memory through your life. It’s a beer around the campfire with friends; it’s a baguette you picked up at the farmer’s market; it’s the night’s last cigarette on the porch when everyone else has gone to bed. The New York-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist zeroes in on everyday details and extracts wonder from them. This spirit surges through his eloquently-fashioned folk amplified by just the right dose of rock energy. It’s also fueled his quiet rise as a phenomenon with millions of streams and packed shows.  After a series of what he describes as “test releases,” he emerged in 2021 with his debut EP, Spin Cycle, which incited the applause of FLAUNT, OnesToWatch, and more. Theo then said farewell to Nashville, and set his sights on Los Angeles. His 2022 EP, What if it all works out in the end?, was highlighted by “Me & All My Friends Have Got the Blues,” a modern-day folk tune à la Jackson C. Frank and James Taylor.  The lead single from that project, “Flight to JFK,” has reeled in over 470k streams to date.  Between headlining dates of his own, he supported Evan Honer, ROSIE, and even the legendary John Oates. Following the release of his stripped-down EP, Somewhere Along the Trail, Vol. 1, he signed to Nettwerk and is gearing up to release more music.
