Produced by Malcolm and his bandmate Jonah Cochran (The Bluebell Smile, Luke Shelton, Simon Doyle), along with frequent collaborator Charlie Ziman, “Chest Pain” reflects the emotional push-and-pull of love. “It’s about that bittersweet feeling of losing someone who still lingers in your heart,” Malcolm shares. “I wanted the production to mirror that — smooth yet piercing, like love itself.”

Co-signed by ScHoolBoy Q, Malcolm has already made a major mark this year with his first sold-out North American headline tour, along with sharing stages with Omar Apollo, and wowing crowds at the Hollywood Bowl in LA, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits, where A BOOK OF praised his set, calling him “an electrifying ball of energy” with a stage presence that “never disappoints.”

This release follows the success of “Comfort Me” — which Atwood Magazine hailed as “an entirely new musical wave” — and his latest project, Two New Malcolm Todd Songs, featuring fan-favorite “You Owe Me,” and the quirky “Cute Shirt (Interlude).” 

With over 185 million total streams and counting, Malcolm Todd is steadily rising in the music scene and his groove-heavy blend of alternative RandB, pop, and indie styles is winning over fans and generating excitement for what lies ahead.
