Minneapolis songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Landon Conrath found his voice almost by accident. A drummer by trade, Conrath spent his formative years keeping the beat in bands rather than fronting them. It wasn’t until he opened up to a friend at a pool party with a new composition, he was encouraged to hone in his sound.
Conrath immersed himself in the recording process with reckless abandon. Since making his debut in 2020, Conrath’s distinctive brand of hook-laden indie-pop has seen him become a viral sensation on Spotify landing on influential playlists virtually overnight. His authentic, off-the-cuff style has resonated with listeners around the world amassing millions of streams. “I never wanted to make anything that was based on a trend. It's exciting to have the freedom to really choose who I want to be and what I want to say. My goal is to make music that people can connect with.”
Landon is proud to announce his debut album Nothing Matters Anyway with the release of the single + video “Trader Joe’s.” Blending hypnotic synth lines with hard-hitting guitars and a fiery chorus, Landon delivers a melancholic melody about those moments where it feels like everything is taking a turn for the worse. Landon worked with Minnesota native and member of Hippo Campus Jake Luppen, who served as co-producer on the track.
“Trader Joe’s” follows “Boulevards,” “Casanova,” and “Last Week,” which will all appear on Landon Conrath’s forthcoming album, Nothing Matters Anyway, due out September 9 via Nettwerk. In addition to releasing new music, Landon has been busy touring as the music/production director for fellow Minnesota songwriter Ber.
