Slayyyter Tickets

A viral breakout of the internet and social-media age, Slayyyter has won millions of fans who gravitate toward her party-ready art-pop bangers that draw inspiration from Charli XCX, Paris Hilton, Lady Gaga, and more. 

Born Catherine Grace Garner in 1996, Slayyyter is originally from St. Louis, Missouri, but has since relocated to Los Angeles. She started songwriting in college at the University of Missouri, where she crafted '80s-inspired bedroom pop. She produced the songs herself but never published them. She eventually dropped out of school to pursue a music career, teaming up occasionally with collaborator Ayesha Erotica, whom she met on Twitter.

Together, Slayyyter and Ayesha Erotica collaborated on singles like Slayyyter's debut, "BFF," "Ghost," "Candy," "Alone," the Boy Sim-produced "Hello Kitty," and "All I Want for XXXmas." In 2018, Slayyyter also released the GhostHaus-produced "I'm High" and the Boy Sim-produced "Platform Shoes." 

Things really took off for Slayyyter in 2019 when a 14-second snippet of "Mine" was posted on Twitter. In under 24 hours, "Mine" reached 38 on the iTunes pop chart in the U.S. Later in 2019, Slayyyter embarked on The Mini Tour. The following fall, she released her self-titled mixtape, which peaked at No. 4 on the U.S. iTunes Pop Chart and No. 14 on the U.S. iTunes Albums Chart.

In 2020, Slayyyter uploaded a cover of Britney Spears' "Gimme More" to SoundCloud. Later that year, she released two more singles, "Self Destruct" and "Throatzillaaa."

In 2021, Slayyyter released her debut album, Troubled Paradise. Around that time, reality star Heidi Montag confirmed she would be collaborating on future music with Slayyyter. In February of that year, Slayyyter also released "Clouds," which was followed by "Cowboys," "Over This!," "Dog House," and "Stupid Boy" featuring Big Freedia. 

Describing why she finds songwriting to be therapeutic, Slayyyter told Paper Magazine in November 2021: "When you're really feeling strongly about something or someone or something that's happened to you, it's the best way to get it out. The best therapy for it is to write a song about it. I hate the idea of certain songwriting topics being off limits... that is so stupid. Everything about songwriting and what makes music so powerful is that it's your real experiences that maybe someone else might connect to."
