From the NBPS stage to stages across the country 🎤✨ Today we’re hearing from alum Sam Kayko ’18, aka KAYKO, sharing his story. After NBPS, Sam attended Berklee College of Music and later moved to Nashville to pursue music full time. Known for his “happy songs with sad words” and energetic shows that feel like a coming-of-age movie, KAYKO mixes pop punk, synth pop, and musical theatre into a sound that’s raw and nostalgic. First discovered by Katy Perry on American Idol, he’s now touring his debut album Manic Pixie Dream Girl. 🎸 🎥 Interviewed by Renee Peredo (N.E.S.T Coordinator) on the left and Eva Sabga (Student and Head of Committee) on the right. #NBPSAlumni #KAYKO #AmericanIdol
