He also made his first radio appearance singing some covers a songs, which jumped him into popularity. His song started to be featured on the radio, then he supported Khalid on his tour while it was in Australia and New Zealand, before ending the year by officially being signed. In 2018 he released an EP and did a lot of performing, plus was nominated for and won an ARIA Award for Breakthrough Artist, becoming the youngest artist to win that award. In 2019 he was featured on Hilltop Hoods' album, then released another EP of his own before performing at two of Shawn Mendes' shows on his tour. He released another EP in 2020 and was nominated for another ARIA award.
