New Evalyn "Playstation": Enthralling 130 Million+ Streamed Artist Electro Pop
"Playstation" is a mood-rich dark electro pop anthem filled with thrashing guitars and hyperpop melodies. She confides, "Playstation was written on a scorching hot day in LA when I was pregnant and nauseous and was basically bed ridden every day. We wanted to capture the feeling of getting caught droning on your phone, playing video games or watching reality tv in bed and getting stuck there - the guilty pleasure of it. This song represents the sea change in the sonic direction of the album toward something darker and more intense."
The enthralling music video represents a turning point in the new music, a real darkness in the album. She further shares, "This video incorporated a lot of core tenets of the new music - technology, feeling overwhelmed by screens, anxiety, drowning in your feelings. We got to smash old tv’s and I was fully drenched in pouring water so I believe it matched the energy of the song."
Evalyn has amassed over 130 million streams on Spotify alone and has been lauded by the likes of publications including Billboard, OnesToWatch, LADYGUNN, PAPER and NYLON. She has further performed at Coachella and The Greek Theater. Thanks for your consideration,

Evalyn has spent over a decade transforming personal turbulence into pop catharsis. The Los Angeles-based artist, whose work has amassed over 130 million streams on Spotify, returns with her most ambitious project yet—A Quiet Life, an album that captures the existential unraveling of modern consciousness through the lens of impending motherhood.
Known for wrapping raw emotional intensity in irresistible melodies, Evalyn first captivated audiences as the voice behind Louis the Child's breakout track "Fire," before establishing herself as both a sought-after collaborator and formidable solo artist. Her 2018 psychedelic pop opus Salvation cultivated a devoted following, exploring themes of self-rescue that would become her artistic calling card. The album's 2024 vinyl re-release, featuring new material, proved her enduring resonance with fans seeking depth beneath the dance floor.
A Quiet Life pushes further into conceptual territory, drawing production inspiration from the dissonant frequencies of Aphex Twin, ARCA, and Grimes. Written and recorded almost entirely during her first pregnancy, the 13-track collection mirrors the physical and psychological chaos of transformation—the nausea of anxiety, the noise of endless scrolling, the vertigo of losing oneself while creating new life. It's her most visceral work yet, co-created with some of Los Angeles' most innovative producers to weave a sonic narrative of consciousness, tension, and surrender.
As a live performer, Evalyn commands stages from intimate venues to festival main stages. She's graced Coachella's Sahara tent with Jai Wolf, performed at The Greek Theater, and captivated crowds at SXSW and CRSSD. Her collaborations read like a who's who of electronic music's vanguard: Dillon Francis, San Holo, Tritonal, It's Murph and RAC have all tapped into her singular ability to inject humanity into the digital realm.
With music featured everywhere from HBO to Spotify's most coveted playlists (New Music Friday, Young & Free, Metropolis), and support from major publications such as Billboard, Paper and Nylon, Evalyn continues to blur the lines between pop accessibility and artistic ambition. A Quiet Life sees her at her most fearless, inviting listeners to piece together their own meaning from the wreckage. True to form, she offers no easy answers—only the permission to feel everything, loudly.
Her single "The Feeling" is a sonic adrenaline rush inspired by the euphoric sounds of the 2010’s. The single is shared alongside an enthralling music video that represents a kind of maina. Evalyn confides, "This song is really about being taken over by a feeling or a raw instinct and we wanted to create that through movement. I was 6 months pregnant and crawling on the floor in heels and pink tights - I think that helped capture the chaos." OnesToWatch proclaimed the track to be an "exhilarating burst of sound" while LADYGUNN says its "magnetic and pulsating".
The track "Boysgirls" is a nostalgic gem for those of us who love to romanticize the past. Evalyn shares, "We had so much fun working and reworking production until it felt like it hit right - I wanted to capture that feeling of instagram stalking your ex situationship and then spinning out a little."
Her latest single "Playstation" is a mood-rich dark electro pop anthem filled with thrashing guitars and hyperpop melodies. She confides, "Playstation was written on a scorching hot day in LA when I was pregnant and nauseous and was basically bed ridden every day. We wanted to capture the feeling of getting caught droning on your phone, playing video games or watching reality tv in bed and getting stuck there - the guilty pleasure of it. This song represents the sea change in the sonic direction of the album toward something darker and more intense."
