Peyton specializes in progressive R&B that's intimate and offbeat yet always melodious. The singer and songwriter started in the mid-2010s with a series of independent releases. Among them was "Sweet Honey" (2016), a trippy love ballad that was heard in an episode of Insecure and led to a deal with Stones Throw. Since making her label debut with the Reach Out EP (2019), the Houston native has put together her first proper album, PSA (2021).
