On The Rise: Meet Xavier White, The Real New York Dreamer
Meet Xavier White, the NYC crooner most known for his dreamy approach to real life.
Equipped with delicate and commanding vocals, White is quite possibly the best of both worlds.
While relatively new to the scene, Xavier’s approach to raw story-telling and gentle delivery resembles that of an industry vet, and it’s a prime reason why the young singer-songwriter is on our radar.
Only one EP in, and Xavier White has already managed to create a buzz around himself, building a fanbase that’s contributed to well over two million streams across his digital platforms.
We recently had the chance to catch up with him and pick his brain on his winning formula. Read up below.
Growing up, what do you remember being your first real introduction to music?
Growing up I was introduced to music from my cousin Josh who was a DJ. Before I knew it, he had me singing on his sets whenever he would have BBQ’s, block parties. After a while I would start getting or be requested to be alongside him at birthday parties. It was fun! I gotta give credit to my Uncle Jay who introduced me to all sorts of different music.
How did that translate to you pursuing it and taking it seriously?
It translated really early, I mean you know as a kid, you have dreams of being an astronaut, or being a doctor but, all that changed once my cousin introduced me to the music world, and I took it serious right of the bat. I started recording with him when I was about 14 years old, and at that time I knew this is what I wanted, so I started developing my music life
