RISING SINGER-SONGWRITER MICHAEL MARCAGI RELEASES NEW SINGLE “FOLLOWS YOU”
Continuing to make waves this year, breakout singer, songwriter and celebrated storyteller Michael Marcagi unveils an introspective and nostalgic new single entitled “Follows You” via Warner Records. It heralds the arrival of his upcoming Midwest Kid EP, arriving April 18.
About the song, Marcagi commented, “I’d say one of my biggest red flags is not dealing with my problems head-on. Constantly being on the road and touring can make it very easy for me to brush them aside and ignore the underlying issues. ‘Follows You’ illustrates that it doesn’t matter how far you run away, life’s personal challenges will always catch up. They’re just like your shadow. Sometimes you may not be able to see it, but it’s always following you.”
Just last night, Michael delivered an impassioned performance of recent single “Flyover State” on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
“Flyover State” landed just last month, and it’s already generated over 1 million Spotify streams and counting. Not to mention, he dropped by CBS Mornings to perform it on Saturday Sessions.
Weeks before, Holler hailed “Midwest Kid” as a “nostalgic, uptempo earworm,” before noting, “Michael Marcagi continues to cement himself as one of the most exciting new voices in the folk landscape.”
“Midwest Kid” followed a trio of recent singles, “Keep Me Honest,” “Good Enough”—which was co-written by Wesley Schultz of The Lumineers—and “Tear It All Apart.” Of “Tear It All Apart,” HITS professed, “Its melancholy verses give way to a rousing, redemptive chorus. The buzz on Marcagi is getting louder; he’s a true-blue story teller.” Flaunt Magazine observed, “Quite the lyricist, evoking an inspiring and relatable feeling – resonating deeply, and immediately , with those who hear it.”
Marcagi announced his arrival as a solo artist in 2024 with his Warner Records debut EP American Romance. Its Platinum-certified lead single, “Scared to Start,” reached #5 on the Billboard Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, amassing more than 4 billion TikTok views and nearly 800 million global streams in the process. This past June, Marcagi made his late-night TV debut performing the hit on Late Night With Seth Meyers.
Marcagi is currently on the road for a run of US headline dates. Shortly after wrapping up in the US, Marcagi will be supporting The Lumineers on their EU/UK arena tour in April and May, and then will join Rainbow Kitten Surprise across the Southeastern US in June.
