Ethereal was born into this world to Glenda Ann and Ollie Charles July 10th, 1989. Exposed to a wide variety of music at a young age, it was only a matter of time before he began to relay his inner musician/scientist. At year 16 he began making bedroom beats and backpack raps with his close friends, “grinding” across every social network and medium available.

His dormant musical prowess came to shine after the passing of his near and dear mother. Some think this drove him mad sending him into a reclusive, hermetic state. While others know and agree this was just an experience that he was growing and sharpening his mental swords from. Now on the rise after adamantly self-promoting, insuring, and safeguarding himself he is ready to take on this planet.

Now at 21 he has an impressive and extensive library of music under his belt ranging from 90’s Drum and Bass to Tribe-era hip-hop instrumentals and an emerging lyrical prowess. Fusing elements from every musical scene into one, he has close to perfected his style and sound, making him an honorable opponent on any of the three major weapons; Microphone, Beats, or the wheels of steel.

Ethereal’s live performance may be his most amazing skill yet. With the ability to not only convey his dialect and phonics with crytal clear imagery through a microphone, he does it while mixing and performing with live instrumentation.
Ethereal has opened at last years A3C Music Festival, TOKiMONSTA, Kendrick Lamar, and Yelawolf just to name a few.
