Carnival is the debut full-length from Bryce Vine, a former Berklee College of Music student who released several independent singles and EPs throughout the 2010s before signing a major record deal with Sire and scoring a viral hit with the single "Drew Barrymore" in 2018. Blending witty, thoughtful lyrics with smooth production perfect for a pool party, Vine draws equally from rap, pop, R&B, and alternative rock influences. Follow-up hit "La La Land," with rapper YG, is also included.
Carnival reached number 99 on the Billboard 200 album chart following its release in July of 2019.
