LETDOWN.

Letdown. is ready to embrace the positive. The Texas-born, Nashville-based alt-rocker, singer, and multi-instrumentalist has tackled a slew of personal demons—many of which turned up on his catharsis-packed debut EP, 2023’s Crying In The Shower—in order to come out on the other side, stronger than ever.

The prolific artist’s latest batch of songs, which he is constantly churning out as a therapeutic way to process daily life, are upbeat, hook-packed anthems that invite audiences to shout along in unison.

“I think I’m at the end of writing about my problems,” Coddington muses. “I’ve been putting myself through emotional music therapy for three years now, and it’s working. I’m finally looking back and laughing for the first time. I consider it the upswing of the depression. I’m about to enter this whole new phase in my life. Everything feels new again for the first time.”

Ever since he first began releasing music in 2020, Letdown. (real name Blake Coddington) has poured his soul into crafting soaring rock anthems that vulnerably chronicle his mental health journey and sonically intersect with punk/emo, electronic, and pop.

Posting a series of unguarded videos to TikTok, Letdown. has seen his following grow to more than 675K, nearly 1M monthly listeners on Spotify, and over 100K on Instagram—not even counting the 200M total streams his songs have earned. This growing popularity has led to extensive nationwide and European touring, allowing Letdown. to connect with fans across the globe.

“That’s the greatest part of this,” Coddington says of his more buoyant direction. “We’re all dancing around the studio. It’s the most natural writing I’ve ever done…”

The song “Hate Myself”—his collaboration with producer Carlo—became his second Top 25 single at Alternative radio, signaling his rising profile and the impact of his emotionally honest songwriting.

He continues to unpack tough emotions in tracks like:

“Be Ok” (featuring LØLØ) – written near the end of a serious, unhealthy relationship.

“Dead Right” – a fun, catchy tune created without overthinking.

“Crying In The Shower” – a Top 20 hit detailing heartbreak, fleeting highs, and emotional numbness.

“Go To Hell” – a defiant, crowd-moving anthem about the painful complexity of leaving an abusive partner.

“Young Broke (2025)” – a self-reflecting song about the reality of his life, and his future

If anything unites Letdown.’s debut album, it’s his ability to mix audible joy with emotional darkness, creating cathartic, uplifting music that turns hardship into healing.

“The music I’m writing currently has been a lot more fun than it ever has been, and a lot less depressing. This is what’s been handed to me—now I’m gonna have to make something awesome.”

Blame My Youth

Sean Van Vleet has played the biggest of stages (Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Late Show, etc.), went on tour with massive acts (Death Cab for Cutie, Alkaline Trio, Deerhunter, etc.) and worked on songs that appeared in major TV shows, video games, and commercials. So it’s no surprise that as soon as Van Vleet formed Blame My Youth, the rocking quartet immediately saw their first single, “Right Where You Belong,” land as the closing credits theme on the GRAMMY-nominated soundtrack of Bill & Ted Face the Music, and their follow-up, “Fantastic,” picking up millions of streams and hitting the top 30 on the Active Rock radio charts. After a trio of Danny Wimmer Presents festival appearances announcing their arrival as a band last fall, Blame My Youth spent the summer of 2022 touring across the UK and the US. With their debut Dance With My Demons EP, the band continues to work with chart-topping producer Joey Moi and craft the infectious rock songs that spark in the vocalist’s ever-running mind. This collection brings with it the rambunctious singalong tunes Blame My Youth is becoming known for, showcasing a rebellious mix of Van Vleet’s complex emotional lyricism and unforgettable hooks, with each track further solidifying why many believe the band is set to be one of 2023’s breakout artists.
