Halsey is a 23 year old singer, songwriter, and activist. Her most recent album, HOPELESS FOUNTAIN KINGDOM was released last summer.

Born in New Jersey, Halsey went from releasing a song on soundcloud to selling out Madison Square Garden to a Platinum-certified debut album in less than seven months, with five Gold singles and more than 100 billion streams. In June she returns with her new vision, hopeless fountain kingdom. The GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum alternative pop maverick was hailed by Billboard Magazine, Forbes and MTV as "the voice of her generation." Now 22, she was recently named Billboard's 2016 Women In Music Rising Star, appeared on the cover of Forbes' 30 Under 30 issue and was hand-picked to perform at December's Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

Halsey pushes creative boundaries expanding her influence and impact BEYOND music. High-end fashion retailer Yves Saint Laurent recently tapped her as a brand ambassador of YSL Beauté where she will help create and share makeup looks for the prestigious brand. She will also make her big screen debut as she joins the cast of the animated movie TEEN TITANS GO! as THE VOICE of Wonder Woman-in theaters July 27. And GLAAD has nominated her for "Outstanding Music Artist." Recently, Halsey spoke at the 2018 women's march advocating for equality. Her raw oration has been viewed millions of times and has moved people from around the world.
