IN THE STUDIO
THEODORE is a Melbourne singer and songwriter who can sit with a feeling or turn it all the way up. Living in different countries and growing up around different people gave him the confidence to explore music without fixed borders. Pop, rap and soul are his starting points, with room to follow a song wherever it needs to go.
In rap, he is drawn to voices with a recognisable point of view—from smaller artists in hotel room studios to major artists with distinctive styles and duos.
Soul makes space for heartbreak and loss, with Lana Del Rey’s unique style among his influences.
Pop lets the wilder part of him out: feelings that can be messy, tender or difficult become something bright enough to move to. He wants the release as much as the reflection.
His forthcoming single NIGHTFLAME explores escape and attraction through the intimacy of a late-night drive. Elsewhere, his writing moves through growing up, letting go, getting lost in a night out and worrying about the world young people could inherit. Different subjects and different moods, with room for every part of him.
