For years, non-binary artist Michael Witt sought to make music on their own terms. From their childhood in Waco, making music with their classmates, to stints in Dallas as solo artist and instrumentalist — and as drummer for — to today, taking their fluid and poignant audio stylings to the next level in Nashville, Witt isn’t interested in following the rules of the game.
"The song ‘Landslide’ and the song ‘Yesterday’ are real dramatic and melancholic,” Witt says. “But it’s beautiful music. and that feels like a through line, because I fell in love again with music when I found Radiohead — talk about dramatic and beautiful music.” When Witt started pursuing music as a career, they found community online. Their music took off during the pandemic, by frequently sharing clips of songs and offering instrumental tutorials via TikTok.The artist has always used musical performance to accompany pivotal life moments. Music became a coping mechanism during the COVID-19 pandemic. As shows started picking back up again, Witt played instruments in local bands before making the move to Nashville.
On another song, “Sweet Jane,” Witt is captivated by a female archetype that represents their ideal self. Over a beachy, percussion-and-guitar-driven groove, Witt creates a fun, hot-girl anthem for those uncovering those parts of their identities.
