Catalyzed by his father’s suicide in 2022, Lew Apollo’s genre-bending soul music reflects on deep-rooted internal struggles, cloaked in a sepia and rose tint. Born and raised in Rural Northern Minnesota, Lew’s songwriting and style is the fusion of his home state’s icons, Bob Dylan and Prince. Drawing inspiration from Hozier, Leon Bridges, and Labrinth-Lew’s ear-candy production style, hypnotic guitar and sultry voice create a lush sonic landscape akin to a jungle: a visual embodiment of an overgrown mind. Lew has sold-out countless shows with his band following the 2023 release of his debut EP, introducing himself as the next artist to watch. Lew Apollo’s self-produced debut album 'Fool’s Gold' is out August 8, 2025.
