Royal & the Serpent is an artist entirely unafraid to bare the deepest and darkest parts of her psyche. After making her Atlantic Records debut with the 2020 EP, get a grip - highlighted by the RIAA Gold-certified single "Overwhelmed, " which spent 22 weeks on Billboard's "Alternative Airplay" chart - the L.A.-based singer-songwriter revealed even more of her frenetic inner world in 2022 with IF I DIED WOULD ANYONE CARE and Happiness Is An Inside Job. Along the way she also teamed up with GRAMMY-nominated/multi-Platinum-certified GAYLE for vengeful collaboration "kinda smacks" and The Beaches on "Blame Brett (feat. Royal & the Serpent). Her single "Wasteland" from the Arcane League of Legends soundtrack has further cemented her impact, garnering over 115M global streams; she notably performed the track at The Game Awards in December 2024. Royal's unfiltered songwriting has proved wildly resonant to her ever-growing fanbase, building a close-knit community of fans undeniably drawn to her one-of-a-kind balance of intense sensitivity and unruly self-possession. "The main reason I make music is that it's the best therapy I could ever ask for: the process of taking everything in my brain and putting it on paper and then singing it out loud for people is so helpful and healing for me. The idea that my own expression can affect people in positive ways is such a blessing and a gift; I don't ever take it lightly. I just want to keep telling my truth and reach as many people as I possibly can, and see where this little journey takes us."
