Justine Skye by Conor Cunningham
CANDY EP https://justineskye.lnk.to/CANDY
(March 30, 2026) – On the heels of the release of her new EP CANDY via Warner Records, Justine Skye announces her headline American tour. Launching July 26th, she’ll take her discography to cities across the US, including Atlanta, New York, Washington D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Her new body of work, CANDY, sees the singer-songwriter deliver her most confident, carefree, and rhythm-forward project to date — blending R&B sensuality with house, funk, and club-ready energy. Featuring contributions from Baby Tate, Machinedrum, Daniel Caesar, and a pair of collaborations with KAYTRANADA, the EP marks a natural evolution for an artist who has long lived at the intersection of soul and groove, now embracing the world of dance music.
The EP was first announced with the release of Justine’s single “Thong,” a KAYTRANADA-produced single that followed a run of dance-infused 2025 releases that signaled Justine’s new chapter in “Oh Lala” and “YAP,” which earned praise from the likes of Billboard, BET, Highsnobiety, Office Magazine, and Stereogum, among others. Those records established her as a fearless bridge between R&B and house — and CANDY builds on that foundation with even more color, confidence, and joy. Ahead of the EP’s release, Justine hosted a release party at Sunset at The West Hollywood EDITION in partnership with Cash App, 818 Tequila, Halfway Prebiotic Iced Tea, and Yoshi Matcha Liqueur.
Over the past year, Justine has emerged as one of music’s most exciting cross-genre voices — touring globally, high fashion moments, and deepening her connection with fans through vulnerability and authenticity. From Ibiza-inspired anthems to Pride Month staples, her journey into dance music has felt organic, intuitive, and unmistakably hers. This summer, she’ll be making her inaugural debut at Lollapalooza, where fans will be able to enjoy all of her new music and acclaimed hits at Chicago’s beloved music festival.
Beyond the music, Justine continues to use her platform for impact, including her work as a mental health advocate and keynote speaker at the 2025 Active Minds Conference — reinforcing her commitment to wellness, self-expression, and community. “Speaking up about mental health isn’t a weakness — it’s a strength,” she shared in her speech. “[When] we open up, we not only heal ourselves, we inspire others to do the same.”
