Steller is on a crash course with stardom as she breaks new ground with her Here & Now EP and North American headline tour. She had a scorching hot 2024 filled with three EP releases on Mersiv’s Morflo Records, Subtronics’ Cyclops Recording, and Insomniac’s Bassrush. She’s brought that same fire into 2025, starting the year with a few collaborative singles and tasty remixes of Bill Withers’ famous “Ain’t No Sunshine,” and Odesza’s hardest tune, “Loyal.”
On July 7, she self-released her latest album Here & Now, showcasing her development as a producer. “Each song invokes a different feeling, almost like a meditation,” Steller shares. “Though it is not ambient meditation music, it is meant to make you feel good and offer emotional relief. I was working through a lot while writing this and found peace by the end. Hopefully, it does that for someone else, too.“
She created the title track “Here & Now” to immerse the crowd in her musical energy at the start of her tour set. Once Steller started flowing, she completed the 4-track EP in about two weeks. About “Downslide,” her collab with Seth David, Steller shared that “working with Seth was seamless — he sent over a sick idea, and I built off of that. You can really hear our sounds in each drop. His vibe is drop one, mine is drop two.“
The third track, “Down With You,” features melodic layers and a minimalistic groove, allowing listeners to tap into reflective energy. She closes the EP with “Eternal Love,” an emotive tune with dreamy synthscapes and ambient textures. “I remember writing the outro chords and just feeling like I could exhale for the first time,” Steller recalls. “That moment was my creative reset.“
In addition to the EP, Steller has an action-packed second half of 2025, continuing her Here & Now Tour with more headline shows and festival appearances. The non-profit To Write Love On Her Arms is working in partnership with Steller on her tour to spark dialogue around mental health, presence, and community care. Steller expounded on the partnership, “My goal with this tour and this project was to create a moment where people can just escape for a bit and tap into something real. We all need an environment that encourages this, and I hope these songs give people what they gave me while writing them.”
For our fans at Moon Lvnding HQ, you can catch Steller in Arizona on the Gold Rush lineup in September. She will also make festival stops at Dancefestopia in Kansas and Seven Stars in Virginia. After a busy week in New York City playing as support for Excision and hosting her own popup at an intimate Brooklyn warehouse, Steller is taking a small break before getting back out on tour in August. For the most up-to-date list of her upcoming shows and tickets, head over to her website.
Moon Lvnding was fortunate to catch her recent Brooklyn popup with City Soul after being blown away by her Electric Zoo afterparty performance in 2023. She owned the room, and the crowd was vibing. Plus, the new tunes sounded great with that thick bass blasting the crowd. If you’ve got a chance to catch Steller in action, don’t miss it. Keep up with her using the social links below.
