Livingston, Camylio

media release: Buzzing alt-pop phenomenon Livingston continues to soar to new heights on his upbeat, uplifting new single “Look Mom I Can Fly,” out now via Republic Records.  

“Look Mom I Can Fly” revolves around a bold drum groove and hypnotic claps. Flexing his towering range, the singer, songwriter, and producer’s verses give way to a chantable chorus, “Make me believe I’m gonna reach the clouds, ‘cause I just wanna feel alive, look mama I can fly!”  

About the track, Livingston said, “This song is what it felt like to look at the world with wonder again. I get so caught up in moving forward that I forget how much magic there is in the little moments of life. This song really fights against that part of me that’s trying to grow up and be realistic—and it’s a reminder of how important it is to hold on to my inner child despite what the world throws at me. I hope it can do the same for other people, wherever they’re at on their journey.”  

It lands in the wake of his single “Gravedigger,” which has already amassed over 10 million streams in just two months. Earning critical acclaim, HITS professed, “His ability to connect with and inspire listeners has fueled his rise as a standout alt-pop artist,” and Melodic Magazine applauded how, “By sharing some of the darker times that plague him and transforming them into moments of triumph, Livingston has been able to empower listeners and remind them that they do not have to go through the bad times alone.” After teasing “Gravedigger” online himself alongside fan captured videos, the sold-out crowds on his recent debut headline tour this summer responded immediately with impassioned sing-alongs.  

Livingston’s brand of world-building pop remains unrivaled, and it continues to captivate from the stage. He sold out his North American and European/U.K. headline “A Hometown Odyssey Tour” earlier this summer, which marked his first ever tour. Next up, he returns to the road this month for Part 2 of his U.S. headline run. It kicks off on October 28th in Tampa, FL at The Orpheum, visits major markets coast-to-coast, and concludes on December 4th in Santa Ana, CA at The Observatory Santa Ana.

Earlier this year, the 22-year-old Denton, TX native first unveiled his debut album A Hometown Odyssey. Brought to life by Livingston who wrote and produced the album, it made major waves independently and has amassed more than 600 million impressions and over 100 million Spotify streams to date. It vaulted to #2 on the Spotify Album Debut UK Chart and #3 on the Spotify Album Debut US and Global Charts. Among many chart successes, “Last Man Standing” bowed on the Spotify Global Viral 50 Charts in the US, U.K., Sweden, Denmark, and Australia. Meanwhile, breakthrough single “Shadow” took flight as the #1 iTunes Global Song for over 24 hours upon release and cracked the Top 20 on the Spotify US and Global Viral Charts. It even boasted an appearance by Academy® Award winner J.K. Simmons for its “Introduction.” Not to mention, he was recently named YouTube’s “Artist On The Rise” in June.

Music means many things to Livingston. It’s an escape from the trials and tribulations of daily life. It’s a blank canvas for dreams to manifest upon. Most of all, it’s proof that anything is possible. Akin to building a rocket ship in a suburban backyard, the 22-year-old Denton, TX singer, songwriter, and producer creates handcrafted outlier pop teeming with big screen-worthy orchestration, arena-size ambition, open-hearted lyricism, and sky-high hooks. His words strike a deep chord, whether booming through your speakers or sung from the stage to a sold out crowd. An uncanny ability to empower listeners to realize their potential has accelerated Livingston’s ascent as a world-building alt-pop music maverick in 2024. As a kid, he felt a lot of love from his parents and two siblings, but he went through hell at school for “being different.” Despite ceaseless bullying and teachers who just didn’t understand, he found solace in music. He endured his first heartbreak, weathered teenage loneliness, and poured his pain into a MacBook Pro, writing, producing, and performing music out of his childhood bedroom. At barely 17-years-old, he introduced himself to the masses with a pair of debut EPs Lighthouse [2020] and An Unlikely Origin Story [2021]. Among various highlights, “Fairytale” resonated with 50 million-plus streams, and he collaborated with everyone from Macklemore to Louis The Child. He independently released his debut album A Hometown Odyssey in 2024, generating tens of millions of streams on the likes of “Last Man Standing,” “Shadow,” and “Half-Life.” Not to mention, this summer, he sold out his first-ever North American, European, and U.K. headline tours. Now, his vision expands in widescreen with his latest singles “Gravedigger” and “Look Mom I Can Fly” and his forthcoming North American headline run this fall.
