New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Scarypoolparty is an artist that "comes around only once in a lifetime" (Ones to Watch). During his first-ever full-band show at Lollapalooza, his intoxicating and jaw-dropping guitar skills paired with his masterful piano playing showed an artist "with a rare gift for musicality that stops you dead in your tracks" (Ones to Watch). In a set filled with a "confidence and abandon [that's] just magical"(The
Chicago Tribune), his musical prowess has landed him on best-of festival lists from Billboard, Ones To Watch, GRAMMY and more.
Today, Scarypoolparty continues to showcase his "impressive musicianship" (Billboard) on his latest self-produced single, "
Diamonds". Co-written by Alejandro
Aranda and Sawyr, the song brings his full throttle energy and genre defying style approach to the forefront. Layered with electronic nuances, there's an industrial-rock angst that encapsulates the yearning urgency of Aranda's lyrics. The hypnotic, synth-driven track immediately calls to mind The
Nine Inch Nails raw energy and The 1975's bombastic-yet-exuberant dance rock.
