This project helped catapult him into producing, where he decided to pursue a career in dance music with the help of Kygo and his Palm Tree Records team. In 2019 he wrote/produced "Think About You" by Kygo, "Bigger Than" by Seeb, and made his debut as an artist in his own right, collaborating with Matoma on their song "Keep It Simple" (featuring Wilder Woods). Last year, Petey wrote and produced five song's on Kygo's Golden Hour album, as well as releases with Loud Luxury, Frank Walker, and a remix for Seeb.
