about
Medium Build is the musical project of Nicholas Carpenter, a singer-songwriter from Anchorage, Alaska. Carpenter grew up in Georgia, studied songwriting at Middle Tennessee State University, then moved to Alaska where he began performing as Medium Build in 2016. Drawing from country, indie rock, emo, and R&B, his music is marked by compassionate, conversational lyricism and a grounded, grungy sound. After building a devoted local following in Anchorage, he signed with Slowplay / Island Records in 2023, toured with Lewis Capaldi and FINNEAS, and reached the Billboard charts collaborating with X Ambassadors. His 2024 major-label debut album Country exposed his quirky confessionals to a wider audience, followed by the EP Marietta and 2025 release takeaways.
