Going by the alias “Mark Johns”, in under a year Naomie Abergel went from unsigned singer recording songs on an iPhone for fun, to the first solo vocalist signed to Skrillex’s OWSLA label.

Abergel was born in Canada but raised in Singapore. After uploading a number of cover songs to SoundCloud, her Jay-Z and Kanye West cover “In Paris”, caught the attention of Skrillex, who offered her a record deal.

Mark Johns' first major commercial contribution was in 2015 with the Glitch Mob on “Better Hide, Better Run”. She went on to work with artists including Lemaitre and Gnash, before releasing “BTFU (Mommy Issues)” in 2016. An EP, Molino, arrived later that year.
