  • David Strääf (2018–present): Originally from Sweden, David joined The Six officially in late 2018 as a songwriter and record producer. The song "Dance in the Dark" by Au/Ra, which was released in 2019, was classed as his initial breakout credit with the collective. Since then, he has worked with The Six on songs for Cheat Codes, Tom Grennan and Nicky Romero.
  • Isaac Sakima (2020-present): SAKIMA began his career as a singer and had done so for two years before joining the collective as a member.

In 2017, She began working on her songwriting away from the group, eventually spawning hits with Paloma Faith, Charli XCX and Noah Cyrus and later revealed she had reunited with The Six to work on new music in 2018. As of 2020, she now works as a solo songwriter and The Six no longer credits her as a member.
