MUSIC + VISUALS

With Dempsey Bolton’s upbeat anthems it’s hard to tell if it’s his heart that’s breaking or if he’s the heartbreaker. Introspective lyrics layered with punchy beats defines Dempsey’s self-produced indie pop hits. Coming off winning a YYC Music Award for Pop Single of the Year with his song “Couple Minutes” and having recently showcased at Breakout West and MUSEXPO LA, Dempsey is looking to continue this momentum into with the release of his sophomore album, “i’m not sad, u are” which dropped April 25, 2025. The album is a self-produced tour-de-force, featuring anthemic choruses and dynamic arrangements, cathartically tackling themes of isolation and detachment.
