Raised in a single-parent home marked by poverty and addiction, Atlus had to grow up fast, building resilience and a lifelong commitment to authenticity in his music. Phonetically named after the mythological Titan who held up the heavens, he began writing while working long hours as a commercial truck driver, crafting lyrics and melodies behind the wheel to help support his family and fund studio time. That pavement-pounding grind became both his classroom and his engine, fueling the rise of a loyal underground following. Breakthrough moments soon followed, including performing alongside Jelly Roll at a packed Red Rocks Amphitheatre and landing a Top 5 album on Spotify’s Global Album Chart. With over a billion on-demand streams, millions of followers across social platforms, a Platinum single to his name, and recognition as one of Pandora’s 2026 Artists to Watch in Country, Atlus continues to turn personal stories into universal anthems. His label debut album, Art of Letting Go, arrives March 20 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville and features his first single that is currently climbing the country radio charts, “Devil Ain’t Done.”
