Bio

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, his songwriting and style fuse the legacies of Bob Dylan and Prince with modern influences like Hozier, Leon Bridges, and Labrinth, creating lush, cinematic soundscapes through hypnotic guitar, ear-candy production, and a sultry voice. Following the release of his debut EP, Lew has sold out countless shows, toured in support of Los Lonely Boys, and earned radio rotation on KUTX with singles like “Diamonds and Gold” and “Let the Light In.” His self-produced debut album Fool’s Gold (Aug 2025) has already surpassed 300,000 streams in under two months and is generating buzz, with KUTX calling him “the perfect summer vibe,” AMP Music declaring “Lew Apollo will be a force in the R&B and pop stratospheres. Be warned,” and Earmilk praising how “Apollo’s signature smoky voice sets the tone for a sultry soundscape.”
