About the Artist:Memphis-based Healy lived a double life during his first few years as an active musician, going to med school by day and making music by night. Somewhere between laid-back hip-hop and acoustic singer/songwriter styles, Healy broke through with dreamily catchy singles like “Reckless,” from his 2017 debut album Subluxe, and evolved into more R&B-informed styles on subsequent releases like 2021 album Tungsten, and stand-alone singles like his 2023 Cautious Clay collaboration “Famous Last Words.” Ethan Healy was born in Memphis in 1993. Growing up in Midtown, he soaked up his city’s unique social and musical energy.
After finishing high school, he taught himself guitar and even released a few acoustic-leaning tracks online before switching his focus to hip-hop. In 2015, going by Healy, he uploaded his debut EP, A Galaxy with Skin, and it quickly caught on. He was immersed in med school as his music career began taking off, but he found a way to focus on both pursuits for the next several years, releasing singles like 2016′s “Phantoms” and a full-length album, Subluxe, in 2017.
He graduated from the University of Tennessee College of Medicine with a degree in physical therapy in 2018. In 2019 he returned with the melodic new single “Tucson.” Throughout 2020, he teased the release of his next record by slowly releasing new tracks, all of which were collected on the 2021 full-length Tungsten.
After the release of this sophomore album, Healy didn’t resurface until June of 2023, when he shared a new song, “2D,” and quickly followed it the next month with “Famous Last Words,” made in collaboration with Cautious Clay.
