Gotham Award-honored actor, performer, & recording artist Tomás Matos returns to music with the release of their new single “Lover”, a sensual, confidence-forward track. Blending playful lyricism, queer intimacy & bedroom-rap energy, the song marks another step in Matos’ growing musical lane alongside their work across film, television, and stage.
Known for roles in projects including Fire Island, FANTASMAS, And Just Like That…, and Broadway’s HADESTOWN, Matos continues expanding their artistic voice beyond acting. “Lover” leans into vulnerability, flirtation and self-assured sensuality while maintaining the bold presence audiences already associate with them. Early listener feedback has highlighted the track’s magnetic delivery, intimate energy, and crossover appeal between pop, hip-hop, and queer rap culture.
“‘Lover’ definitely has a wink to it. It’s sensual, confident, and very tongue-in-cheek. Though judging by my cover art, maybe more cheek than tongue,” Matos says.
With visual content planned around the release and continued music on the horizon, Matos is steadily expanding their artistic footprint beyond acting into a multidimensional creative space spanning music, performance, and digital culture.
