Seven Lions, aka Jeff Montalvo, is a DJ who spins melodic dubstep mixed with glitch hop and bass. He was a drummer who switched to music production in 2007. Soon after his switch, he won a competition held by Above & Beyond by remixing their track “You Got to Go.” In 2012, at the age of 25 Seven Lions released his debut EP Days to Come which made it to Vibe’s Top Electronic Albums list of 2012 and got him a regular spot on BBC Radio 1. Two years later, his EP Worlds Apart got to number two on the Billboard Top Dance/Electronic Albums Chart while also entering the Billboard 200. In 2017, his EP Creation became his first to be number one on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums Chart. The next year, Seven Lions launched his own label titled Ophelia. He continued to release chart-topping singles and EPs, often with collaborations with artists including Wooli, SLANDER, Dabin, and Noah Kahan.
