The Merrier
5th wave emo / alternative pop / digipop / hyperemo / alternative rnb / hyperpop / emo
The Merrier is the collaborative solo-project from Cleveland, Ohio. The name is a nod by progenitor Jake Stephens to the phrase “The More the merrier”. It fits Jake’s bedroom pop mindset towards music writing and production, as he creates dreamy, digital pop songs he refers to as "dreamo", or alternatively "digipop" (an amalgamation of emo, chiptune, indie, hip hop, pop, and more). The songs feature contributions from musicians across genres who infuse their own unique style to finish them.
