Named the Best Breakout Artist of 2023 by Westword Magazine, N3PTUNE is an explosive multi-hyphenate musician hailing from Denver, CO. Heavily influenced by his upbringing in the Baptist Church, N3PTUNE merges the essence of gospel, blues, and soul into an amalgamation of pop music as only his mind can create. His songs are bold and brash, and his live performances are immersive and raw to the point where Sleigh Bells’ Alexis Krauss likened the experience to “seeing Prince live for the first time.” N3ptune’s quick ascent from the local DIY scene to selling out shows and performing on some of Denver's biggest stages like Red Rocks and Ball Arena, as well as supporting the likes of Qveen Herby, Cordae, Rina Sawayama, Slayyyter, Wyclef Jean, Sleigh Bells and others, has made N3PTUNE a standout in Denver's oft-overlooked music scene. Not only that, but N3ptune’s penchant for pushing fashion and performance art in visuals and live performances has allowed him to carve a lane for himself, unlike anything that has come before. RENAISSANCE, his first mixtape, arrived in 2021 to critical acclaim. N3PTUNE supported the mixtape by touring the East Coast alongside Sleigh Bells in August 2022. Appearances at major festivals ranging from Capitol Hill Block Party, Northern Nights, Treefort, Electric Forest, and San Francisco Pride, among others, have pushed N3ptune's artistry across the nation. In 2025, N3PTUNE released his long-awaited follow-up EP, XYDS, and an apocalyptic pop journey that spawned major singles, "WMD" and "BLK305."
