Valories with Aaron Rizzo + Caroline Reilly at Smith's Olde Bar (Atlanta Room)

Valories is a Nashville-based alt-pop artist defying the rules of the genre. Constantly looking for ways to push the boundaries both sonically and thematically, she’s crafted a unique sound while also drawing in fans of MUNA, Paramore, Miley Cyrus, and PVRIS. While her lyrics are often vulnerable and dark, Valories curates a magnetic and high energy live show, never falling short of displaying her charismatic personality.
Since bursting onto the scene in 2022, Valories has been carving out her own lane in the alt-pop world. Her music has garnered attention from tastemakers like EARMILK, Ones to Watch, Pleaser Mag, Cage Riot, LUNA Mag, Tongue Tied Mag, No Country for New Nashville, and East of 8th. She’s earned airplay on Lightning 100 and captivated live audiences with standout performances, including a support slot for NIKI at Eastside Bowl, a sold-out Cannery Hall show with Tay Jardine (We Are the In Crowd), and most recently, a packed-out headlining show at Nashville’s classic venue “The End.”
With momentum building and more on the horizon, Valories continues evolving and fiBUY TICKETSnding ways to one-up herself—her latest EP “SCRAM” being a prime example of her at her boldest. As East of 8th writes: “Valories’ latest track ‘i can’t wait’ captures the intensity of longing with an edge that’s both playful and deeply felt — she’s quickly becoming one of Nashville’s most compelling alt-pop voices.”
