Early life


Born and raised in Toronto, Helman graduated in 2013 from Earl Haig Secondary School.[2] He is Jewish. His parents were very supportive of the path of music which Helman wanted to follow.[3][4] He got his guitar for his 10th birthday, and by the time he was 14, he knew he wanted to be a professional musician. At 15 years old, he signed a development deal with Warner Music Canada,[5] where he began writing sessions with writers such as Simon Wilcox and Thomas "Tawgs" Salter.


Career


In 2014, Helman announced the release of the track "Bungalow" as the first single from his debut EP Augusta. He later toured with Tegan and Sara, Shawn Mendes, Walk Off the Earth, and Vance Joy.

Since the May 2017 release of his full-length album Hôtel De Ville, Helman has toured and released the singles “Kinda Complicated,” “Ripple Effect,” and the gold-certified "PDA".

In February 2018, as part of CBC Music's Junos 365 Sessions, Helman performed the Tragically Hip's song "Bobcaygeon" as a tribute to Gord Downie.

In mid-2018, Helman was invited to open for Vance Joy's five Canadian tour dates and his European tour. In advance of the European tour, Helman released "Hang Ups," followed by a remix featuring Spanish singer Blas Cantó.

In 2019, Helman toured the United States, opening for Dean Lewis. The song "Everything Sucks" was written during a difficult time when Helman was trying to find a song that could help lift his spirits while simultaneously justifying the experience he was going through. When he could not find one, he wrote one himself.

In 2020, Helman released his album NonSuch Park with new songs to spark this career.He also talks about his grandfather's inspiration on his album.[6]

In 2021, Helman was a panelist for Canada Reads, an annual "battle of the books" competition, defending Two Trees Make a Forest by Jessica J Lee in a series of debates that took place on CBC radio. "This book's importance is twofold. For one, understanding one's place in the world is a universal struggle, but within the multicultural landscape of Canada, it is even more so. More importantly, this book is told through an environmental lens and dissects the painful crossroads that an individual must face within the place of a diaspora and a family. The merging of nature and humanity has never been of higher importance at this moment in history," Helman said during the Canada Reads reveal on CBC's radio show Q.[7] Helman and Two Trees Make a Forest were eliminated in the first round.[citation needed]
