Braden Bales
BRADEN BALES is a Canadian singer-songwriter/artist who has built a reputation for his deeply personal and emotionally resonant music. Now based in Los Angeles, Bales gained widespread recognition with his breakout hit, CHRONICALLY CAUTIOUS-an anthem of anxiety and self-doubt that has amassed over 60 million streamsworldwide.
Over the past couple years, Bales has continued to build momentum with a successful headline tour, selling out major markets including New York and Los Angeles, alongside support runs with Livingston, Cian Ducrot, and MICO. After releasing his 5 STAGES OF GRIEF EP with Capitol Records, Bales is now fully independent and entering a new chapter with a fresh EP and national headline tour.
In addition to his solo work, he recently launched an emo band, afterthought, with his friend and collaborator Ezra.The band has quickly gained traction within the scene, gaining over 4M views across socials, and building demand for a full-length album slated for release in late 2026.
