Lauren Sanderson
Bio
Hi. It’s me, Lauren. Welcome to my bio, where I’m supposed to somehow fit 20+ years into a couple of paragraphs—so buckle in.
I grew up in Indiana, and let’s be real—things didn’t exactly go according to plan. I didn’t get into college, but somehow, that led me to a TED Talk at 19, where I realized I wanted to do one thing: be my authentic self and inspire people along the way. I started making music in my bedroom, sharing everything—the highs, the lows, the real stuff. Before long, a community of people who felt like I did started to grow, and that took me to LA in 2018.
By 2019, I was on stage opening for FINNEAS and Chase Atlantic—insane. Then 2020 came around, and I dropped my debut album, Midwest Kids Can Make It Big, which got love from Billboard, Complex, MTV, and even Zane Lowe on Beats 1 (one of my favorite interviewers on planet Earth). In 2022, life got crazy when “THERAPY!” blew up on TikTok. That year, I also collaborated with G FLIP on GAY 4 ME—which was massive for both of us—and then dropped my second album, Death Of A Fantasy, which now has over 20 million streams on Spotify… what the ****.
Fast forward to 2023: I released IDC AT ALL with the help of Vic Fuentes from Pierce the Veil. I toured the world—37 cities across North America, Europe, and the UK. It’s been surreal, and I’m beyond grateful for it all. But somehow, this is still just the beginning. My third album is coming in HOT in 2025. I hope you’re ready for a wild ride.
