WHAT IT IS: Michael Marcagi’s breakout single, “Scared to Start,” pushed his TikTok view counts into the millions and became his debut entry in the Hot 100. Since its release less than a year ago, the track has gone platinum, and Marcagi has emerged as a global touring sensation. In 2025 the Cincinnati-based singer-songwriter will release a new album and support The Lumineers in arenas across Europe. Using folk and bluegrass instrumentation, cavernous rock drums and luxuriant vocal harmonies, Marcagi makes music for listeners who prize specificity and sophistication in songwriting, evident in his latest single “Good Enough.”
