Bershy is the shimmering pop persona of Midwest-born artist Brea Shay, a rising voice in the new wave of queer pop. Emerging in 2020 with a trio of self-released demos, Bershy quickly caught the ear of her Cincinnati music community. She earned strong support from Inhailer Radio 90.9 and established herself as one of the city’s most promising new artists. Collaborating with producer Coran Stetter of Multimagic, Bershy’s breakout came in early 2023 when TikTok tastemaker The Bun shared her dance-floor-ready love anthem "Radio", introducing her glittering sound to a global audience. Bershy dropped"4U"in March 2024, further refining her signature blend of glossy hooks and emotional vulnerability. Later that year, she relocated to Los Angeles to expand her creative horizons. In November 2025, "Radio" was featured during Robert’s Homecoming Party in Episode 6 of the hit narrative video game Dispatch, a sync that has taken the song to even greater heights. The track sparked a massive resurgence across streaming platforms, introducing Bershy to a passionate new fanbase worldwide. To date, it has amassed over 11 million streams, averaging roughly 500k streams per day and growing. With her heartfelt lyricism, infectious pop sensibility, and unapologetic queer identity, Bershy continues to carve her space in the modern pop landscape, one irresistible anthem at a time.
