Atlantic Records' hottest new signing, Kami Kehoe, delivered an EP that's as sweet as it is dangerous. "KANDY" twists the narrative of heartbreak and obsession, channeling the rush and crash of a relationship.
Her lead single, "DOPAMINE", hit #12 on Sirius XM Octane's "Big Uns" Countdown and drew praise from rock legends Daughtry, Seether, POD, and her lifelong inspiration, Joan Jett.

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.
Ascending alt-rock talent, Kami Kehoe, has today unveiled her brand new EP, "Kandy" via Atlantic Records, Coup D'Etat Recordings and 10K Projects. The poignant five song collection arrives alongside the brand new single, "COME DOWN" and a music video for viral single "DOPAMINE". Fans can listen to "Kandy" now HERE and check out the premiere for brand new video for "DOPAMINE" / "COME DOWN" Below.
What began as a handful of cryptic teasers quickly erupted into a fan-fueled phenomenon, as early previews of "Kandy" exploded across social media, racking up more than 10 million views before the first track, "DOPAMINE" even dropped. A striking fusion of gritty rock, vulnerable storytelling, and fearless experimentation, "Kandy" crystallizes the next evolution of Kami Kehoe, an artist that has already dominated with over 25 million streams and 24 million TikTok views worldwide.
While "Kandy" is meant to encapsulate the euphoric rush of an all-consuming, intoxicating love, her latest single, "COME DOWN" strips away the high to reveal a raw, introspective journey through a heartbreak's aftermath. Offering a candid look at the process of letting go, "COME DOWN" delves into the lingering ache, self-reflection, and questions that surface when the rush of love fades.
As she ushers in "COME DOWN" and also celebrates the success of smash hit "DOPAMINE" and the release of her brand new EP, "Kandy", Kami Kehoe reflects:
"Releasing this EP feels unreal. I poured so much of myself into these songs, they helped me heal through one of my toughest heartbreaks and my biggest hope is that they connect with others who need them too.
There's something truly special about performing live, sharing these lyrics, and feeling that energy together. I can't wait to experience that with everyone this weekend at Warped Tour and this fall while on tour with Daughtry, Seether, and POD."
Amplifying her momentum, Kami Kehoe will be joining renowned rock icons Daughtry, Seether, and POD as the opening act on their highly-anticipated fall US tour. Moving seamlessly between the festival buzz of Warped Tour and arena stages, Kami Kehoe's effortless live presence speaks to her undeniable range and broad appeal. As she nears her largest tour to date, this run marks a significant milestone for the up-and-coming artist as she shares the stage with three of rock's most established acts on a landmark run of shows.

ABOUT KAMI KEHOE
KAMI KEHOE has never been one to sit around and wait for permission. Although she’s only 21, the Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and drummer has been blazing her own musical path for the past 15 years, spinning a chameleonic, hard-charged rock sound into 25 million streams and more than 24 million TikTok views.
This 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 ripped through social media at lightning speed, netting Kami 100,000 new TikTok followers a day and further cementing her as a rising name in the underground.
Now, that story continues with “SAFEHOUSE,” her brand-new single featuring Colorblind and Ekoh. Written in the aftermath of the Los Angeles fires, the track combines droning shoegaze, Deftones-style riffs and propulsive electronic undertones into a hypnotic blend of metal, alternative and hip-hop. It’s another bold step forward for Kami as she continues to kick down the guardrails of her sound – as well as another entry in her omnipresent push to Kure The World, a mantra proudly emblazoned on her bass drum and a mission statement that’s powered her songwriting since day one. “If I can change one person’s life through my music, then I’ve reached my goal,” she says proudly. “I make music for me; I release music for others.”
Ascending alt-rock talent, Kami Kehoe, has today unveiled her latest single, "Dopamine", alongside the announcement of her upcoming EP, "Kandy" set for release on July 18th, 2025 via Coup D'Etat Recordings and 10K Projects. This forthcoming EP showcases Kehoe's unmistakable voice on a dynamic, modern production that blends gritty rock with a fresh, fearless sense of experimentation. Fans can pre-save "Kandy" HERE.
What began as a handful of cryptic teasers quickly erupted into a fan-fueled phenomenon, as early previews of "Kandy" exploded across social media, racking up more than 7 million views before the first track, "Dopamine" even dropped. The overwhelming response from fans sharing, debating, and rallying behind each new snippet fast-tracked the EP's release date, transforming what could have been a routine rollout into a genuine, fan-powered movement.
Reflecting on the release of "Dopamine" and the announcement on her brand new EP, Kami Kehoe shares:
"I wrote “DOPAMINE” when I was at a pretty low spot in my life, this song really healed something in me and I hope it can do the same for anyone who needs it.
I was going through a break up while writing this EP, each song helped me get through my heartache. I was able to pull from my own experiences from my perspective and there’s. The main concept of this entire EP is that even when something is good or feels good doesn’t always mean it’s good for you. I use a lot of metaphors relating to candy, drugs, and all these “wrong” things that may feel right sometimes and compared it to how I felt with my past relationship. I hope this EP can help anyone who needs it like it did for me."

Three of the most electrifying forces in the alternative and hip-hop scenes — Kami Kehoe, Ekoh, and Colorblind — come together for the first time on their powerful new single, "Safehouse". A genre-bending anthem for anyone searching for refuge in chaos, this new track introduces Kami Kehoe as the latest addition to the Cupid Theory management roster, where she joins fellow "Safehouse" collaborator Colorblind.
Watch the new video for "Safehouse" HERE or at the link below.
Amidst the hellish landscape of the recent California wildfires, this tight-knit collective escaped to Las Vegas to weather the storm. What emerged from that time was "Safehouse," a brooding, hard rock monument born from chaos and resilience. In a powerful act of solidarity, Kami Kehoe, Ekoh, and Colorblind will be donating all royalties from "Safehouse" to those impacted by the California wildfires.
Looking back at the making of "Safehouse," the voices behind the track spoke about what made this collaboration so special:
"When the fires happened in LA I evacuated to Vegas and ended up meeting some incredible people. Ekoh, Travis from colorblind, Curt Martin, and now my manager Kyle. We were all in shock from what was happening, I remember we were all just sitting there talking about how unreal everything felt, and constantly checking to see if our homes and friends were safe. But during such a tragic time we were able to make something so beautiful from it. All of us together ended up making such a powerful song that will hopefully help anyone who needs it. And even though the fires have stopped, there are still tons of people who are suffering, so we want to help as much as we can and give all of the royalties to the victims of the LA wildfires."
- Kami Kehoe
"When the LA wildfires hit in January, the three of us ended up in Vegas, just trying to process everything and figure out our next move. It was a pretty scary situation, but making music together gave us a way to escape for a minute and put all that fear and uncertainty into something real. That song became more than just a track—it captured what we were feeling in that moment, and hopefully, it can do the same for anyone else who ever finds themselves in a situation like that."
- Ekoh
"Just by the energy in the room when we started this song I could tell it was going to be special. Having to evacuate LA was an experience that none of us were expecting and getting to cope with that anxiety by making music with my friends is something that I’m so grateful for. We hope you feel this song as much as we did. Our hearts go out to everyone who was affected by the LA fires."
- Travis Moseley of Colorblind
With "Safehouse" making an impact, Kami Kehoe, Ekoh, and Colorblind are setting the tone and promising a thrilling, ever-growing 2025. As their collective stream counts total to millions, this collaboration embodies the spirit of a supergroup, blending their talents in a one-time alliance. Bringing together distinct details from their respective genres, "Safehouse" serves as exactly that — a space where fans can find solace in times of uncertainty.
Don't miss out on Colorblind currently touring with Capstan across the US now, as well as Kami Kehoe and Ekoh taking the stage at Warped Tour this July! You can also catch Kami Kehoe and Colorblind at Louder Than Life Fest this September, alongside acts such as Slayer, Avenged Sevenfold, and Deftones.

Ekoh, a versatile artist from Las Vegas, blends hip-hop, rock, and alternative genres to create a unique sound that defies boundaries.

Known for high-energy live performances, Ekoh has built a strong connection with fans, highlighted by a memorable moment during his “Freeverse 3” set, where fans threw their Vans shoes on stage for him to sign. This led to a partnership with Vans, allowing Ekoh to design his own custom shoes.
In October 2024, Ekoh released Pressure, a rock/rap hybrid album that landed in the top 10 rock charts and received widespread critical and fan praise for its innovative sound. The release was followed by a 27-city headline tour across the U.S. and Canada, solidifying Ekoh’s position as a trailblazer in both rock and hip-hop. With a growing fanbase and a distinct musical style, Ekoh continues to carve out his own lane in the industry.

Colorblind are due for their debut album in late fall of 2025.
