After a few years away from music, PERRIS (aka Perris Howard) is making a comeback—and he’s doing it in style. You’ve probably seen him before: maybe in campaigns with brands like Coach, Converse, Arnette, or Topicals, or on your Instagram or TikTok feed, where he’s built a following of over 650,000 fans and racked up more than 21 million likes with his mix of fashion, lifestyle, music, and comedy content. Now, he’s back to doing what started it all: the music.
PERRIS is introducing a fresh sound that blends pop and alt-pop influences with a smooth, stylish vibe. Think Ravyn Lenae meets Jordan Ward. Thus, lyrics that stick with you and production that feels like late-night drives through LA.
Moreover, the first single called “Nauseous” is an emotional gut-punch wrapped in cool melodies. “‘She refuse to talk to me. A lost belief and gone too soon…’” PERRIS shared via a statement. “It’s the madly-in-love to green text pipeline. A tale as old as the iPhone itself.” Whether it’s unanswered calls or being straight-up ghosted, the song captures the heartbreak of unreturned love. And the acceptance that maybe it wasn’t meant to be after all. As PERRIS puts it, “It’s all good, I won’t die.”
Stay tuned. Moreover, this is just the beginning. PERRIS is back, and he’s got a whole lot to say.
