Following high school, van Vooght moved to London, England to study classical music at the European Institute of Contemporary Music, but dropped out after several months, and instead spent time working on music in the city's live music scene before returning to Vancouver a year later. after he unexpectedly saw drag queen Ilona Verley perform "Tell Me Smooth" as a lipsync number at a Vancouver drag show, he cast Verley in the video for his 2018 single "Broken".

He followed up with the album Two Faced in 2020, and The Outer Circle followed in 2021.

He is a frequent collaborator with Luca Fogale, a fellow Juno nominee in 2022.
