Sinéad Harnett from his forthcoming Fall 2024 album: The Sun, The Moon, & The Big Machine. The cool, tranquil harmonies amplify sunsetto’s unique way of relaying the struggles of coming of age in the digital era, when one can observe from afar past loves moving on without us: “Don’t leave me behind, we need more time, I’ll cry if you go tonight, I waited way too long and now you’re moving on. Don’t leave me behind.”

About sunsetto:
Few musical artists can capture the zeitgeist the way Toronto-based singer, songwriter, and producer sunsetto (aka Kyle Mischiek) does. Growing up on Cape Breton Island on Nova Scotia, sunsetto split his time between music and skateboarding – and cultivated a community through both. After trying (and quitting) guitar and piano lessons, he started to rap and make beats in high school. He attended several songwriting camps hosted by GRAMMY® and JUNO Award-winning songwriter Gordie Sampson (Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban) to continue to hone his skills.
In 2020, he shared a snippet of his single “don’t leave” on Instagram and organically amassed hundreds of thousands of streams. He followed up the initial viral buzz with more tracks, including “good connection” and “downtown.”
While his sound is full-on forward-thinking pop—pulling from an all-over-the-map list of genres such as dance, rap, R&B and modern country—his lyrical themes dip and twist from the joyful to the profound.
This year’s releases, “PLANS,” “POTENTIAL,” “GREEN TEXTS” and “DON’T LEAVE ME BEHIND” feat Sinéad Harnett are a testament to the way in which sunsetto’s finger is on the pulse of a new generation of pop fans, as he gears up for a new chapter in music with his debut album The Sun, The Moon, & The Big Machine out this Fall 2024.
