blend of overlapping layers to create a mystical, soft-core sound. Many influences,
ranging from jazzy and alternative rock melodies to psychedelic and lo-fi ambient
sounds, but also left-field.
Active with one EP (My curly hair, Nov. 2018) and two LPs (Ride on and A Prophet after
his Turkish bath, 2022), released in May and June of the same year.
Notable Singles Ride On (2022) and Perfect Town (2020) were issued by Nice Guys

Gionatan has a mercurial and unpredictable personality and is able to express himself
in unique ways because of his varied life experiences. He is always open to trying new
things, collaborating with people, and sharing his artistic endeavours. Currently
preparing for his first solo exhibition, which will introduce him to the modern world and
establish his psychedelic universe as a dominant visual force.

Leo Walrus is a 22-year old singer-songwriter with pop sensibilities and an ear for melody straight from the hazy 1960s. Influences can be seen and heard; Lou Reed and Angel Olsen swim in a giant eclectic pool alongside the likes of Nick Drake and Steve Lacy. The world Leo Walrus inhabits is full of hope; often bittersweet, but full of hope nonetheless. It is also a world of mystery to be investigated, enjoyed, and shared.
