Familiar Faces
About
Familiar Faces
Familiar Faces was born out of a vision to have every piece of the auditory and visual experience of an artist project crafted by the same person. The multifaceted producer, singer, songwriter, and visual artist spent the past decade in the music industry producing and touring with other artists, amassing many millions of streams. Devoting the past year to developing his own artist project, Familiar Faces navigates the realms of indie dance and emotionally resonant soundscapes.
2023 has been a milestone year for Familiar Faces, marked by significant achievements. The artist joined Mindchatter on a 24-date tour across the US and Canada, had a track featured in EA Sports' F1 24 video game, and released a collaboration with Jerro via This Never Happened—all within a few months of launching the project.
