Audible Expands “Origins” Series with Four New Musical Powerhouses

The artwork for Dominic Fike, Kali Uchis, Troye Sivan, and Victoria Monét’s installments of “Origins.”

Audible today released four new installments of its music storytelling series, Origins. Chart-topping artists Troye Sivan, Kali Uchis, Dominic Fike, and Victoria Monét offer listeners an intimate glimpse into the influences that shaped them through spoken narrative, musical performance, and immersive sound design. Produced by Fresh Produce Media, this Audible Original is a rare exploration of how the artists shaping the next wave of music found their own voice. All new episodes are now available, exclusively from Audible.

The latest installment of Origins showcases a diverse range of musical talent. Australian singer-songwriter and actor Troye Sivan is known for his influential pop music and LGBTQ+ advocacy; Colombian-American singer Kali Uchis is renowned for her eclectic style fusing elements of R&B, pop, and Latin music; musician and actor Dominic Fike rose to fame with his DIY, guitar-driven take on pop; and Grammy Award-winning R&B artist Victoria Monét is celebrated for her songwriting prowess and collaborations with industry heavyweights.

"Sharing my story through Origins was a pleasant journey of self-reflection," said Troye Sivan. “I’ve always found Origins to be a beautifully crafted series, and the thoughtful process was a reminder that genuine self-expression is a great foundation for meaningful art in both music and everyday life.”

“I hope listeners find inspiration in my journey and can relate to it, and realize that you can still forge your own path and achieve your dreams after the 'nos,'” said Victoria Monét. “You won’t be the person you were when you started the journey, you’ll grow - and you can make your own place.”

More on the all-new Origins episodes:

  • Troye Sivan, the Australian singer-songwriter, actor, and global pop star, shone bright from an early age, even in the face of limiting self-beliefs. For Troye, finding his voice in music has since revealed a spirit he’s spent a lifetime learning to celebrate.
  • Kali Uchis is a Grammy and Billboard Latin Music Award-winning singer and songwriter from Colombia and America whose ability to blend genres and shift between Spanish and English has made her a stand-out with international audiences. She invites us – even forces us – to redefine and reexamine the very concept of origin.
  • Dominic Fike is an American musician and actor whose reckless experience with childhood combined with the volatility of the public eye. Driven by a relentless desire for balance, we meet him where he is: confessional, open, and ready to reframe a narrative that no longer reflects the truth of his origin.
  • Victoria Monét’s ambition was always to arrive as the artist she always knew she would be. The Grammy Award-winning American singer, songwriter, and producer interrogates the long-distance journey between origin and destiny.

These artists join an impressive roster from Origins’ debut installment, featuring Billie Eilish, Doja Cat, Camilo, Koffee, Tobe Nwigwe, Flying Lotus, King Princess, and Mickey Guyton. Origins complements Audible’s Words + Music collection, which includes Mariah Carey, George Clinton, Snoop Dogg, John Legend, Beck, Eddie Vedder, Sting, Alanis Morissette, and many more influential artists across genres and generations.
