ANSON

So where do we start with Anson?

Other than the guy who writes monster ear worms and he’s coming for the title of emo revival King?

LA based native Anson Li is one of the pop-rock masters you are going to fall in love with. He mixes a beautiful blend of alternative, bleeding heart emo vulnerability, cinematic production and huge hooks. His songs will live in your head days after they’ve appeared in your playlist.

It was always on the books, Li was destined to make music. Anson grew up around music and started learning guitar at the tender age of just five (yes, he’s one of those). Followed by a stint at one of the ‘Fame’ Performing Art High Schools. Anson Li debuted in 2012 initially into the world of pop. Soft rock tinged songs of melancholy. Sweet, ardent declarations of teenage love and heartbreak. The EP ‘Go My Way’ in 2012 was quickly followed by ‘This is Love’ the following year. The seeds were sown for the foundation of something more in line with his personal tastes.

The reimagined ANSON arrived on the scene in 2017 with the amazing ‘To be or Nothing at all’. Lead single ‘Hailey’ immediately racked up millions of streams. In a world of manufactured pop, the underground scene was screaming out for something new, emotional and tangible. ‘Hailey’ delivered all of this in bucket loads. ‘A note for you to find…’ followed up the debut in 2021. Drenched in lovelorn lyricism you’re inner Romeo and Juliette can’t help but reenact the balcony scene!

Independent release ‘Bad Taste’ hit in 2024. Harder, more mature and soul searching. ‘The Art of Self Sabotage’ leaves you questioning everything. While its twin sister ‘Losing my Mind’ speaks to a generation in a way we haven’t heard since the glory days of emo.

‘Up all Night’ snuck onto streaming platforms in the Autumn of 2025. A single so addictive you’ll be questioning if someone is subliminally playing it to you in your sleep.

The emo revival is here folks. Get on the bandwagon before it runs you over!
