Actress, singer and songwriter Kylie Cantrall has signed with Republic Records, in partnership with APG and Heroine Music.
Best known for playing the title role of “Red” in the hit Disney film Descendants: The Rise of Red, Cantrall has more recently pivoted to music, releasing her debut EP, B.O.Y. — which included the singles “Boy for a Day,” “Goodie Bag,” “Denim” and “See U Tonight” — via APG last year.

Cantrall’s first release on Republic will be the single “Carrie Bradshaw,” which is set to drop this spring.
“I’m so excited to partner with Republic Records as I release my debut single, ‘Carrie Bradshaw,’ an emotional pop anthem about that moment when you leave your teenage years behind and start writing your own story,” said Cantrall in a statement. “This past year has been filled with highs and lows, and I’ve poured all of that into the music. It’s honest, it’s personal, and even the heartbreak songs will make you want to dance. I can’t wait for everyone to hear what’s coming.”
Added Wendy Goldstein, chairwoman and chief creative officer at Republic Records: “Kylie is an incredibly compelling artist with a clear sense of who she is and where she’s going. The new music feels both innovative and intentional, and we’re so excited to welcome her to the Republic family. Her new single ‘Carrie Bradshaw,’ kicks off the global campaign with APG and we’re all so excited to support the next chapter of her career.”
Following the success of Descendants: The Rise of Red, Cantrall performed in the Descendants/Zombies: Worlds Collide Tour, which sold out 40 arenas in North America, according to a press release. She’s next set to appear in Descendants: Wicked Wonderland, a sequel to The Rise of Red and the fifth installment in the Descendants franchise, which is slated for release this summer.
Cantrall is managed by Jack Kingsrud at Zero Gravity Management.
