-Unknown
Kouvaris The Universal Prince is a genre-defying singer, songwriter, and composer known for his emotionally rich fusion of pop, soul, and electronic sounds. Originally from Jacksonville, Florida, and now based in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Kouvaris uses music as both a sanctuary and a spotlight—amplifying stories of vulnerability, transformation, and self-empowerment. His early passion evolved into a thriving artistry, with his debut album The Universal Prince surpassing a million streams and earning him MTV Rock’s “Artist of the Month” in August 2020.
In 2025, Kouvaris deepened his creative exploration with From Fire to Phoenix, a powerful concept album rooted in transformation, healing, and self-realization. Inspired by the myth of the phoenix, the album takes listeners on a journey from heartbreak and emotional struggle to spiritual rebirth and bold individuality. Each track contributes to a dynamic narrative arc, reflecting Kouvaris’s own evolution—and offering hope to anyone rising from the ashes of adversity.
The album’s visual identity is vividly captured through the Ashenrise portrait series, photographed by Zorz Studios. More than a photoshoot, this session became a visual ritual of self-discovery, reflecting the album’s emotional core through fashion, symbolism, and story.
Leading the charge for From Fire to Phoenix are three powerful singles: “From Fire to Phoenix,” the anthemic centerpiece of transformation and resilience; “Phoenix Rising,” an uplifting call to reclaim strength and rise above adversity; and “Did You?”, a haunting reflection on betrayal and emotional vulnerability.
With his bold voice, cinematic visuals, and unshakable authenticity, Kouvaris The Universal Prince invites listeners into a world where pain becomes power—and music becomes metamorphosis.
