Bentley Robles & ZEE MACHINE Present: TEARS & GEARZ, LEXXE

TEARS & GEARZ is what happens when two of indie pop’s boldest voices stop flirting with a good idea and finally go for it. Real-life best friends Bentley Robles and ZEE MACHINE first teamed up on their viral hit “See Me Naked,” a certified gay anthem that sparked drag performances around the world and cemented their shared knack for big, campy bangers with undeniable hooks.
After two more fan-favorite collabs (“Anyone But Him” and “LOCK ME UP!”), it was clear: the people wanted a band. So TEARS & GEARZ was born, a glitter-drenched lovechild of The 1975, Wham!, and queer heartbreak on the dancefloor. Their latest singles “DELUSIONAL” and “GEORGE MICHAEL” have only cemented their status as indie-pop darlings on the rise.
With over 20 million streams between them, their debut EP ‘FATHER FIGURE FANTASY’ dropping July 3rd, and a North American tour set for summer 2025, TEARS & GEARZ isn’t a side project, it’s a pop supergroup in the making.
LEXXE is a spellbinding pop artist and lovingly fan dubbed "disco witch" who’s making waves in the music world with her unapologetic fusion of ‘80s pop and queer electropop. With over 500 sold-out shows as the featured performer in New York’s Company XIV, she has captivated audiences for six years with her electrifying stage presence and distinct blend of theatricality and grit. Her unique artistry has caught the attention of industry icons, with Baz Luhrmann himself praising her as a "too young to be this good of a songwriter already." This year, she released her debut album as an independent artist, amassing over 300,000 streams in its first month and winning over fans who range from young drag queens to hardcore music enthusiasts, creating a vibrant, inclusive fanbase. She will soon release a duet version of her queer anthem QUEEN with Nicky Doll, who discovered her and the song at Company XIV and fell in love.

More than a pop artist, LEXXE is also a classically trained dancer who choreographs her own performances, blending her background in dance with her music to craft immersive live shows. Her skills are sought after across the industry, having created choreography for artists such as Bentley Robles, Kat Cunning, BEACHWEATHER, and DEZI. Known for her thrilling shows, she’s often described as a "pop vocalist who’s a rockstar," leaving audiences in awe with her energetic performances and magnetic presence. Her shows offer a safe, celebratory dance floor for the queer community and beyond, uniting diverse fans under her vision of a powerful, inclusive space. With her music ranging from infectious pop hits to what fans lovingly dub "queer Stevie Nicks vibes," LEXXE is carving out a distinct and unforgettable place in modern pop music.
