d4vd is a genre-blurring singer-songwriter whose emotionally charged vocals and cinematic soundscapes have captivated a global audience. Born David Anthony Burke in Queens and raised in Houston, he began creating music to avoid copyright strikes on his Fortnite game montages. His breakout came in 2022 with the viral hits "Romantic Homicide" and "Here with Me," recorded in his sister’s closet and propelled by TikTok and streaming platforms. Since then, he has released celebrated EPs like Petals to Thorns and The Lost Petals and his debut full-length album Withered in April 2025, combining alt R&B, indie pop, and bedroom pop with deeply personal themes. He is currently on the Withered world tour with headline dates across North America, Europe, and Asia, and he also created the first official Fortnite anthem, connecting gaming culture to his musical journey.
