Payton has released a string of buzz worthy singles since his debut last year including the recent release of “Don’t Go” about wanting a flame to stay so he can be his best self. He recently released his high octane single and music video for single “Hard To Breathe” and in the stunning visual, p
ayton can be seen strapped to a hospital bed seeking aid for the loss of a lover. The single is the follow up to second single “Habits.” Inspired by a past flame, on “Habits,” a hummable riff cuts through hand claps, keys, and a skittering bounce as he delivers a hypnotic hook, “I can’t seem to fall asleep, cuz thoughts of you and me always seem to haunt my dreams, it was better you and me.”
Payton‘s debut single, “Love Letter,” was inspired after a relationship ended abruptly leaving him with no closure. He was inspired to express the feelings she left him with on the track and tells his story through airy guitar, hip-hop beat craft, and lyrical vulnerability, turning up with a signature style of his own. The Georgia-born and North Carolina-raised singer has been steadily building his fanbase over the past few years through his music and content and has attracted over 13 million fans on
TikTok, 732 million “likes,” and billions of views and impressions. With more music on the way,
payton has become a disruptive force in pop and alternative music. You can connect with payton moormeier via the following links. Photo credit: Jack Dytrych.
