Биография

Synthesizing elements from 80’s new wave and modern indie pop, Petticoat is an LA-based producer, songwriter, and vocalist pushing the boundaries of Pop. Born David Halsey, the multi-hyphenate grew up in the coastal hills of Northern California. His earliest exposure to music came in the form of both the Bay Area’s eclectic hip-hop scene and the trove of pop records his parents had cultivated. Today, Halsey crafts high-energy pop anthems from his bedroom studio, instilling unique energy into his glittering production that balances forward-thinking innovation with sentimental nostalgia. With a finely-tuned style that levels musical elements both old and new, Petticoat is ushering in the next generation of Pop. “I love the music from eras that have had an eye towards futurism,” Halsey says. 
 At age 24, Petticoat is quickly amassing a fanbase of devoted supporters, catching the attention of budding pop icons like Slayyyter in the process. In 2021, he boldly introduced himself with the debut EP Hedon, described as “masterfully polished Pop production to an almost enviable extent” by Ones To Watch—but his journey doesn’t stop there. With more plans for the future, Petticoat is working to push the boundaries of contemporary music while redefining Pop in his wake.
