Bio

Over more than a decade, Dallas trio little image have evolved from suburban kids obsessed with underground indie rock into one of alternative music’s most compelling rising acts. Comprised of Jackson Simmons (vocals/guitar), Brandon Walters (bass/synth), and Troy Bruner (drums), the band found their creative identity by pushing beyond the traditional guitar-bass-drums setup and embracing a more expansive approach to songwriting and world-building.


That evolution led to a partnership with producer Chad Copelin (Sufjan Stevens, 5SOS) and the release of their debut album, SELF TITLED, in 2023. The album introduced little image’s emotionally immersive alt-pop sound and produced the band’s breakout #1 Alternative radio hit, “OUT OF MY MIND,” launching a new chapter that included headline touring and a rapidly growing fanbase.


After navigating a period of personal and creative recalibration, little image returned with their sophomore album, KILL THE GHOST, released in March 2026 via Hollywood Records. Produced primarily by Copelin, the album transforms themes of self-doubt, resilience, emotional freedom, and authenticity into the band’s boldest and most ambitious work to date, featuring songs including “THE REAPER,” “KILL THE GHOST,” “REAL ESTATE,” “RUN FOR FOREVER,” “THE PRESSURE,” “NOVOCAINE,” and “DEFCON.”


Known for their hands-on approach to every aspect of their creative world, from stage design to visual storytelling, little image continue to build momentum both on stage and beyond. The band has toured with Panic! At The Disco, Bad Suns, almost monday, Joywave, and Colony House, and performed at festivals including Shakey Knees, Float Fest, and more. With KILL THE GHOST now out and a growing global audience behind them, little image continue to establish themselves as one of alternative music’s most exciting & creative new voices.

KILL THE GHOST (Deluxe) – little image’s Defiant Exorcism of the Self
In a music landscape that often rewards sonic complacency, the Dallas-based indie rock outfit little image has always felt like an anomaly. Comprising Jackson Simmons, Brandon Walters, and Troy Bruner, the trio first captured alternative radio's attention with their moody, texture-heavy soundscapes. However, it is their latest, expanded offering—KILL THE GHOST (Deluxe)—that cements them as one of the most vital, introspective forces in modern indie rock. Released via Hollywood Records, this deluxe iteration breathes explosive new life into an already brilliant core record, delivering a poignant, arena-ready meditation on what it actually costs to grow up.
