THE CHICAGO ELECTRONIC TRIO CONTINUE THEIR BREAKOUT YEAR WITH A NEW PROJECT FEATURING K.FLAY, BILLY OTTO, LHASA PETIK, AND EMI GRACE, FOLLOWING SOLD-OUT HEADLINE PERFORMANCES AT RED ROCKS AND WINTRUST ARENA
FEATURING “SLIPPING AWAY,” “NEON SOUL,” “HEARTBREAK,” “CAN'T GET ENOUGH,” AND EIGHT ADDITIONAL TRACKS
OUT VIA ULTRA RECORDS
Following a landmark year that has established them as one of electronic music's fastest-rising acts, Chicago-based trio Levity unveil Escapism Vol. 2, a 12-track project arriving November 13 via Ultra Records. Featuring collaborations with GRAMMY-nominated artist K.Flay, Billy Otto, Lhasa Petik, and Emi Grace, the release brings together the trio's signature bass-driven production, emotional songwriting, and increasingly genre-fluid approach to electronic music, marking their most expansive musical statement of the year.
For John, Josh, and PJ, escapism is central to the world they've built around their music. From spontaneous festival performances to sold-out arenas, Levity have created a space where audiences can disconnect from everyday life through shared energy, emotion, and connection. Escapism Vol. 2 expands on that philosophy, bringing together 12 tracks that explore the intersection of high-energy bass music, melodic expression, and musical experimentation.
Among the project's standout moments is “Slipping Away,” a collaboration with K.Flay that bridges electronic bass and alternative rock. Pairing Levity's high-impact production with K.Flay's distinctive vocals and emotionally charged songwriting, the track highlights the trio's growing creative range. The project also introduces collaborations with Billy Otto on “Faded,” Lhasa Petik on “Dream,” and Emi Grace on “Eternity,” further expanding its musical palette and bringing new creative voices into Levity's evolving sound.
Alongside previously introduced tracks “Can't Get Enough,” “Heartbreak,” and “Neon Soul,” the project features “Reimmersion (Intro),” “Odyssey,” “Liminal,” “Coming Home,” and “Breathe,” rounding out a collection that reflects the breadth of Levity's creative ambitions. Together, the 12 tracks offer a more complete picture of the trio's musical identity, balancing the explosive energy that first connected them with fans against a growing emphasis on melody, atmosphere, and emotional resonance.
The release follows a career-defining 2026, building on Levity's viral breakthrough at Electric Forest in 2023. At Coachella, the trio made their Sahara stage debut, unveiling their ambitious Volcano production and welcoming Big Sean for a surprise performance of their viral reworking of “Dance (A$$).” The moment underscored their growing ability to connect bass music with mainstream culture.
That momentum continued with a sold-out 10,000-capacity hometown headline show at Chicago's Wintrust Arena, a national co-headlining amphitheater tour with Tape B that sold more than 63,000 tickets, and their first sold-out Red Rocks headline performance on October 2. Levity have now surpassed 150 million official streams and 900,000 followers across social platforms, cementing their status among electronic music's most exciting emerging headline acts.
Beyond their music, Levity continue pushing the boundaries of live production through their LASERSHIP and Volcano concepts, combining cinematic visuals, lasers, pyrotechnics, and immersive storytelling. Their commitment to community has been equally significant, helping raise nearly $100,000 for charitable initiatives while expanding their cultural presence through collaborations with the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field and Chicago Fire FC at Soldier Field.
As Levity look toward 2027, Escapism Vol. 2 represents another significant step in their artistic evolution. Spanning 12 tracks and multiple collaborations, the project captures a trio continuing to expand their creative identity while remaining rooted in the shared experiences that brought their audience together. From their explosive live performances to an increasingly diverse musical catalog, Levity continue demonstrating that the power of electronic music extends far beyond the dance floor.

Hailing from Chicago, IL, Levity is an electronic trio at the forefront of a new generation of dubstep - pushing the genre forward while bridging the gap between bass music and broader cultural influences.
Known for their high-impact production, hip-hop-rooted sensibility, and crowd-driven energy, Levity has built a reputation for delivering some of the most dynamic and immersive live performances in electronic music today. With over a decade of individual production experience behind the project, their sound reflects both technical precision and a deep understanding of what moves modern audiences.
In 2026, Levity reached a defining milestone with their breakout Coachella debut, where their Sahara set quickly became one of the most talked-about performances of the festival. The trio introduced their new large-scale “Volcano” live production—an evolution of their immersive show concept—while also going viral for bringing out Big Sean to perform their flip of “Dance (A$$).” The set further reinforced their growing crossover appeal, following previous high-profile moments including bringing out Chance The Rapper and Cage The Elephant during their hometown Lollapalooza performance.
Levity’s rapid ascent has been driven by both musical output and live demand. The trio has amassed over 100 million streams, 1 million+ monthly Spotify listeners, 150K Spotify followers, and a combined social audience exceeding 450,000 across Instagram and TikTok, while generating over 20 million in playlist reach. Their breakout catalog includes fan-favorite records like “Flip It” (19.9M streams), “One For You” (13M), “Postman” (7.6M), and “Front to Back” (3.5M) - tracks that have helped define their sound and fuel their rapid growth. They have become a fixture across major festivals including Electric Forest, EDC Las Vegas, North Coast, Summer Camp, and Coachella. Their recently completed LASERSHIP Tour sold out key markets nationwide, including The Shrine, Brooklyn Paramount, Mission Ballroom, and a 10,000-capacity hometown headline at Wintrust Arena.
As they continue into 2026, Levity is expanding their creative vision with the evolution of their “Volcano” production, an upcoming Red Rocks headline debut, and a national amphitheater tour with Tape B. With a rapidly growing fanbase and a sound rooted in both dubstep and cultural crossover, Levity is defining what the next era of electronic music can look and feel like - high-energy, immersive, and built for a generation that wants more than just a DJ set.
