Having been featured on several high-profile publications, including a song premiere on the esteemed Queerty, McCoppin has been described as "...a modern-day version of Wham! mixed with a bit of Carly Rae Jepsen " (A1234), "a rising figure in the LGBTQ community as the next major pop artist to watch," (Instinct Magazine) and a "smooth pop hottie" (Queerty). The New York native creates upbeat, feel-good, romantic, pop tracks tinged with an 80’s pop flair that relatably appeal to Generation Z.
Since his official debut in 2019, McCoppin has performed at various venues in New York City including two sold-out shows at The Bowery Electric and Piano's NYC, and various performances at the YouTube Space NYC. It was these performances and a distribution deal with AWAL (a division of Kobalt Music) that launched his online fanbase to garner over 27,000+ monthly listeners on Spotify and well over 500,000 worldwide streams on his debut EP, Loverboy.
Loverboy (which debuted on a billboard in New York's Times Square) has been described as "truly a once-in-a-lifetime release, and likewise Nicolas McCoppin is a once-in-a-lifetime artist." (Ascribe Magazine) McCoppin is currently attending music school in New York as a studio composition (singer/songwriter) major and is planning to release new music attached to the Loverboy universe throughout 2021.
