Biography[edit]
McPoland was born on November 3rd, 2000, in Burlington, Vermont. He moved to Texas when he was seven years old.[4] After picking up the guitar at age fourteen, he taught himself how to play.[5] Growing up, he was exposed to music from an early age, especially Country music and Folk music. In a 2019 interview, he stated, “both of my parents are very into music, and my father – a lot of my influences come from my father".[6] He has stated that his major influences include, John Prine, Bruce Springsteen, Gregory Alan Isakov, and Dire Straits. When McPoland was younger, he planned to be a folk singer, and even asked for a Banjo for Christmas, but his parents got him an electric guitar instead.[7] Since turning 9, McPoland was involved in various musical theatre productions, which is where he stated that passion for music started.[8]
In 2020, McPoland released his song "Romeo and Juliet", but it wasn't until March of 2021, when he posted an acoustic version of the song on his TikTok, that gathered over two million views.[9] The song - along with the video, helped him start his career, and subsequently, in May of the same year, he signed to Columbia Records.[10]. Since signing, he has released other songs, like "Come Around"[11], "Shit Show"[12], and "News At 9"[13] - among others.
