WHAT IT IS: Blending Detroit techno and Chicago house with the snarl of West Coast rap, Channel Tres has emerged from the underground scene with a smooth baritone sound and an affinity for lyricism. Performing globally at major festivals and sold-out arenas, Tres has earned cosigns from the likes of Elton John and Tyler, The Creator. Late last year, he dropped his i can’t go outside EP, inspired by his time during quarantine. With features from Tyler and Tinashe, the set arrived in the Top 10 on Spotify’s Top U.S. Album Debuts. He recently collaborated with Polo & Pan on “Tunnel.”
