LION MUSIC VIDEO OUT NOW ✨⚔️
So incredibly proud of this video, and i’m so proud of all the people who helped make this vision a reality. I have to give a massive shoutout to @sold.wav for being the absolute homie out here in Germany and helping with location scouting, driving everywhere, and being in a giant painted ghillie suit for the whole video 😂 Also massive thank you to my lead @mahitimahiti for everything. I’m sure it was a weird ask from some random dude from california, but i’m very grateful for the work put into not only acting in this video, but also helping choreograph the fight itself. So much more to share about this, but please, go show the video some love on youtube. I’m doing this all myself, totally independently, so any support you can show really means the world! Follow the link in the bio, and leave a comment with your fav part✨⚔️🤺

Lion 2026 Version is out now! I’ve been waiting on this for a while, but with the original version of Lion being so close to 40 million streams, it feels like the perfect time.

Some of you may know that i don’t own the original version, as it’s still owed by my former label, so this new version was a great way that i could reclaim my song whilst creating something entirely new and fresh for the people who really liked the original, as well as the people who connect more with the newer music. If you fit into either of those two categories, i greatly appreciate the saves and shares, it really helps a lot as we indie artists fight against the crazy state of the music industry as it exists today.

Lion was a bit of a transition song, as i was transitioning into the genre that i’ve carved out for myself today, so it’s really rewarding to bring it into this new era with me, as well as use it to herald in the next larger body of work. I’m incredibly grateful every day that i get to make music, and i hope that i can continue to make songs thay inspire you all in the ways you most need. Much much much love, thank you everyone ✨💃🏽🖤

Springtime is here ✨💐
Writing for the album currently, exploring a lot of where i’ve come from while looking at where i want to go. My sound has evolved over time, but i feel like this album will be a large culmination of all of the things i’ve learned since the Nocturne EP. Thank you for all the love on Lion. If you haven’t listened yet, or watched the music video, the links are in my bio 🖤

He is as humble as he is insanely talented.

My artist chat with @saintmesa is finally here!
We talk for an hour & 40 minutes about everything from self-teaching filmmaking, to lyrical inspirations, to Lord Of The Rings, to which Christian rock bands still rip today, and we even get a little update about the new album!

This was fun and getting to do this meant the world to me. Thank you, Danny for giving me a chance and trusting the process!

#saintmesa

For the newest installment of my “Artist Chats” series, I had a long conversation with one of my all time favorite musical artists, @saintmesa , about his journey. We talk about his upcoming album, his favorite albums and musical influences, and his experience transitioning from being on a major label to completely DIYing his songs and music videos from the ground up.

This hour and forty minute interview will be available free on YouTube and all major streaming platforms next Tuesday May 26! Follow the fanlink link in my bio to subscribe so you don’t miss out when it releases!

“Lion was the moment I stopped making music for everyone else and finally started making it for myself.” @saintmesa

Saint Mesa’s reimagined version of “Lion” transforms a career-defining turning point into a statement on identity, artistic control, and rebuilding entirely on your own terms.

Process vs result
I’m very amateur when it comes to filming videos, i’ve only really done it for a few years now occasionally, and usually for my own music project. But it’s been a super valuable skill to invest in for myself, because now i have the ability to film a music video for myself on a much larger scale than i would have been able to a couple years ago. And it doesn’t even require crazy expensive of fancy equipment, just a clear vision and the willingness to learn. Grab your phone, film some cool stuff, experiment around with ideas, make art.

Lion 2025 music video coming this friday ✨🖤💪🏽
