New Constellations

Sometimes all it takes is that one song that captures the spirit of the times. For the Portland-based duoNew Constellations—composed ofHarlee CaseandJosh Smith—that moment was their debut single,“Hot Blooded.” What began as an intimate project quickly evolved into a global phenomenon: With over 140 million streams and a massive presence on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, the track has firmly established itself in the playlists of an entire generation. On September 11, the duo will perform an exclusive concert at Vienna’s B72 as part of their current Euro 26 Tour .

The story behind New Constellations’ success is as authentic as their sound itself. At just 14 years old, Harlee and Josh recorded their first songs at home before going their separate ways, only to reunite years later with a more mature, refined vision. It is this organic background that makes the duo so relatable amid the digital hype. With an atmospheric sound blending indie, pop, and electronic influences, as well as a palpable artistic evolution, New Constellations have established themselves as one of the most exciting new acts in their genre and are steadily continuing their international rise.
