Who Is INTERSTATE? | Official Artist Story

About Interstate

Interstate entered the public record in January 2026 with one rule: the work would be seen while the identity behind it remained outside the frame.

Every appearance comes beneath a raised hood, the face swallowed completely by shadow. The hood is not a costume, a mask, or a temporary marketing device. It is part of Interstate's permanent visual language. The audience is not being led toward a reveal. The identity is the work presented in public: the music, the imagery, the catalog, and the world continuing to form around it.

The catalog carries the story forward. Each release adds another piece to a body of work designed to stand without personal exposure, personality-driven promotion, or explanation.

That world exists within Interstate Records, a creative collective and record label connecting the music, visual language, production, and continuing evolution of the project. The sound was built alongside Luxury Vae, with Mikey Calderon also part of the broader Interstate Records creative world. These names may appear where relevant to the work, but do not over-explain their roles or turn the About page into a personnel directory.

The catalog is the biography.

The hood is the signature.

Every release adds another mile to the record.
