Growing up in a musical family, Metts began playing piano at age ten and later transitioned to guitar, developing a distinctive sound influenced by artists like Bon Iver, The Paper Kites, and Novo Amor. After initially working as a software developer, he fully committed to music in 2023, releasing independent tracks like "Nothing to Lose" and "Paper Moon" and signing with BMG for publishing. His music is characterized by soulful vocals, heartfelt lyrics, and acoustic-driven melodies, with recent releases like "Don't Fail Me Now" from his EP Monochrome showcasing his ability to craft deeply personal and introspective songs that explore themes of relationships, faith, and human experience.
