Alt-rock star on the rise, Kami Kehoe, has unleashed her most emotive anthem yet with new single, "FADE OUT", arriving via Atlantic Records, Coup D'Etat Recordings and 10K Projects. This highly anticipated release comes fresh off the heels of her largest tour to date, where Kami captivated arena crowds as the opening act for rock heavyweights Daughtry, Seether, and POD. Listen to "FADE OUT" Below.
In her new single, "FADE OUT," produced by renowned producer Curt Martin, Kami confronts the pain of lingering memories and the tension that comes with seeing someone who no longer belongs in her world. Through detailed, candid lyrics, Kami channels her self-preservation instinct and hard-won resilience into an empowering anthem that encourages others to move forward, let go, and reclaim their autonomy as act of self-love and strength.
Reflecting on her whirlwind fall tour and the cathartic journey behind "FADE OUT", Kami Kehoe shares:
"Fade Out was definitely a harder song for me to write. I was going through a really low point and all I can remember was feeling like it was never ending. I ended up calling my mom during the spiral and she told me “It will all fade,” and “One day you’ll look back, and you won’t even remember,” and the next day I went into the studio and wrote fade out."
Looking back at the sessions that brought "FADE OUT" to life, producer Curt Martin revisits the creative process behind shaping the track into one of Kami's most striking tracks yet:
"Kami and I locked in heavy this year, building and evolving her sound together, and Fade Out was one of those records that hit different the moment she stepped into the booth. She came in carrying real emotion and vulnerability you can hear in her writing, and I focused on building the world around it. The result is a uniquely massive yet raw and honest sound — and I think it shows exactly who she’s growing into as an artist."
With signature gritty guitars, atmospheric production, and Kami's evocative vocals, "FADE OUT" marks a new chapter for the artist whose "Kandy" era documented her journey through heartbreak and garnered millions of streams and viral popularity worldwide. Her hit single, "DOPAMINE", off of her latest EP earned over 10 million streams and hit #14 on Sirius XM Octane's "Big Uns" Countdown, spotlighting her growth in the modern rock landscape.
Carving out her own space in the alt-rock world, Kami Kehoe has impressively amassed over 68 million streams and more than 2 million social media followers by blending a sultry, velvety vocal with a hard-charged rock energy. Since breaking out with the viral hit “SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD”, she has continued to evolve her sound—infusing shoegaze, metal, and hip-hop influences into her music while remaining unapologetically authentic.

ABOUT KAMI KEHOE
KAMI KEHOE has never been one to wait for permission. At just 22, the Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and drummer has blazed a fearless musical path, most recently with her latest EP, “Kandy”, out now via Atlantic Records, Coup D’Etat Recordings, and 10K Projects. Since emerging, she’s spun a chameleonic, hard-charged rock sound into over a million Instagram followers, 10 million TikTok likes, and over 68 million streams in 2025 alone.
Unapologetic authenticity propelled her breakout hit “SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD,” from her 2024 album REVIVED (Coup D'état/10K Projects), to audiences around the world in stratospheric fashion. Almost overnight, the garage-punk suckerpunch – the snarl of Joan Jett with the timeless melodicism of the Ramones – ripped through social media at lightning speed, netting Kami 100,000 new TikTok followers a day and further cementing her as a rising force in the underground.
Diving headfirst into the emotional rollercoaster of heartbreak, obsession, and self-discovery, her latest EP, “Kandy” blends dark melodic rock with pop, metal, and metaphor-rich songwriting. Using candy and drugs as symbols for dangerous pleasures, each of the five tracks explore the tangled interplay between allure and risk, offering a bittersweet reflection on the complexities of desire and the consequences that follow. It’s another bold step forward for Kami as she continues to kick down the guardrails of her sound, another entry in her omnipresent push to rewrite what’s possible for her musical future.
After making waves with a standout performance at Warped Tour and playing her very first headlining show, Kami has just wrapped her largest tour yet, joining forces with industry legends, Daughtry, Seether, and P.O.D. She’ll continue to evolve as an artist with the same freedom and fearlessness that’s led her here, another chapter in a career that’s continually defied expectations – not that she’s ever really cared about those in the first place.
