SYD

The Los Angeles native, born Sydney Loren Bennett, has been a crucial figure in the R&B landscape since her early days with Odd Future and as frontwoman for the Grammy-nominated band The Internet. Her solo work, including the 2017 debut Fin and her latest 2026 album Beard, delves into a more frank and conversational style. Expect a blend of alternative R&B and neo-soul, with her softly sung narratives floating over languid, expertly produced beats and warm analog textures. Soulful, intimate, and deeply felt.
