Roy Blair

California singer/songwriter Roy Blair makes atmospheric, genre-twisting music that's hard to categorize as just R&B, pop, rap, or any one discipline. Blair got his start as a Brockhampton affiliate, singing backup with the boy band's Kevin Abstract and later appearing on his sophomore album. Blair's own debut, Cat Heaven, arrived in 2017, as did subsequent releases like the 2024 album Chasing Moving Trains.The Los Angeles-based artist wrote his first song in the fifth grade after finding a laptop with Garageband at his after-school program. By the 2010s, he was performing as a backup singer with Kevin Abstract on his tour supporting American Boyfriend: A Suburban Love Story. Blair also provided vocals for a handful of tracks on that album, including "Echo" and "Runner." He issued the early solo single "HELP" in 2015, followed in 2016 by "Thunder," "Perfume," and "Jane." The latter trio of tracks landed on his 2017 full-length debut Cat Heaven. Deftly blending lo-fi dream pop and hip-hop beats, the coming-of-age set featured production by Lontalius and Brockhampton members Joba, Bearface, and Romil. In 2019 Blair issued the three-song EP Graffiti, which included the single "I Don't Know About Him." At some point Blair relocated to New York City. In 2024, his second full-length album, Chasing Moving Trains, arrived. This album took the indirect approach to style and presentation in his earlier work and added abstract pop, R&B, and rap production, which all blurred together.
