Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of early 20th-century Italian opera and the nostalgic allure of '70s AM pop, Mergui's sophomore EP Shadows of Blue was a remarkable fusion of influences. Notable tracks from the EP include the Elton John approved "Cry," and "Happy Now?," which Mergui performed on The Kelly Clarkson Show and NBC's The TODAY Show, resulting in the track skyrocketing to the Top 10 on the U.S. iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts.
Mergui's unguarded sense of vulnerability shines through in his art, landing him a coveted spot on People Magazine's Emerging Artists of 2024 list. Following a successful tour with Forest Blakk and a collaboration with Sam Feldt in the latter half of 2024, Mergui is ready to take 2025 by storm with the release of his latest EP Nobody Really Knows and single "Purple Rose." In June of 2025, Mergui headlined a special 5-date tour presented by Sofar Sounds.
His latest releases, "Risk It All" and "Risk It All" (Altégo Remix), are available everywhere now!
