Singer-songwriter Nevi (Daniel Balderas) is a 20-year-old artist from Royse City, Texas, carving a sound that’s deeply personal and genre-blending. Raised in a working-class Mexican American family, he began making music at 12, was discovered by an indie label at 15, and broke through at 17 with One Day, a neo-soul/hip-hop track that marked his early success.Now based in Los Angeles, Nevi has evolved toward country and western music, fusing his Mexican roots with folk, jazz, and alt-country influences. His single The Boy Who Left tells the story of leaving home for LA—a trip that turned permanent after losing his wallet at 18. With influences like Wilco, Jason Isbell, Joan Sebastian, and Bob Dylan, Nevi bridges cultures through songs of resilience, identity, and storytelling, emerging as one of the most exciting young voices redefining modern folk and country.
