Farao

A singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist -- with an emphasis on the latter -- Farao paints hypnotic electronic-acoustic soundscapes that are at once rooted in approachable folk, off-kilter orchestral rock, and spaced-out electronica. After a 2015 debut LP that balanced percussiveness and atmosphere, 2018's Pure-O committed to danceable beats. ~ Marcy Donelson
