About mehro

Pronounced marrow, the name mehro encapsulates their goal of seeping into the literal DNA of listeners. The concept was born from bone marrow: It's essential for us to live, but we never see it, recalls mehro. I hope my music can be the marrow of someone's soul. By sharing so much of themself and, in turn, making others feel seen on their latest releases, mehro comes a step closer to their quixotic goal. I'm chasing a dragon that can never be caught.

Musical Style and Themes

Whether they're scouring the darkest reaches of the psyche or basking in the bright rays of enlightenment, mehro's rich, multi-layered music revels in the duality of the human experience. Their fascination with the dichotomy between pleasure and pain is particularly evident on their newest single, dopamine - the track has an airy, dreamlike sound that lures the listener in before giving way to the bleak emotions bubbling just below the surface.

Career Highlights

The L.A. native released their debut single Perfume in 2020 and immediately caused ripples. The stripped-back love song has since garnered more than 65 million streams on Spotify alone and heralded mehro as one of the year's breakout artists, which included a performance on NPR Music's prestigious Tiny Desk Concert series. Their music has also garnered praise from the likes of NPR's All Songs Considered, FLOOD Magazine, The Line Of Best Fit, FLAUNT Magazine, Under The Radar, and more. Wonderland Magazine proclaimed, "This singer-songwriter has an unreal voice that will leave you captivated from the first note," while Ones To Watch furthered, "mehro very much embodies the spirit of a well-worn journeyman, a wounded poet, a proxy for life's living proverbs, much as Johnny [Cash] and Jeff [Buckley] did before them."

Current Popularity

To date, mehro has amassed over 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify and over 400 million streams across all DSPs. They have also established a loyal fanbase on social media platforms such as TikTok, where they have garnered 33 million views, nearly 5 million likes, and over 800 thousand followers. In addition, mehro's latest single dopamine was the fastest song to reach 1 million streams on Spotify, while their previously released song exploding has been trending atop Shazam's charts in Mexico for over 3 months.
