Drake Livingston

Drake Jon Livingston Jr. (born July 11, 2002) is an American singer-songwriter. He was born and raised in Denton, Texas. When he was 12, he started a small videography company. Soon after, he discovered writing songs and purchased a MIDI keyboard and starting producing his own music in his bedroom. He found it to be a very effective way to communicate his emotions, as he was often bullied in school. He drew inspiration for his music from artists such as Macklemore and Jon Bellion. Livingston's professional career began when he started posting music covers on the social media app TikTok. After some of his covers gained popularity, he was signed to Elektra Records and released his debut single, "Fairytale", both on February 19, 2020. In the following months, he released three more singles and an extended play, Lighthouse, on July 15, 2020. In 2021 and 2022, he released six singles, and another EP, An Unlikely Origin Story, before leaving his record label in March 2023.
