SIPHO.
The singer and songwriter takes us on a journey through the deepest parts of his inner world in this intimate, personal and powerful concert.
SIPHO. (pronounced see-po) has risen into revered status in recent years, thanks to his unique songwriting on tracks such as ‘RACIST / PARADISE’ and ‘USELESS / DUTCH’.
The Birmingham native’s music is the product of an eclectic musical palette, with influences including rock bands like Paramore, Three Days Grace and Foo Fighters, and more recent inspirations like Earl Sweatshirt, Solange, and Frank Ocean.
His debut album PRAYERS & PARANOIA tackles topics such as uncertainty, self-doubt and hope that mark out coming of age as an adult, as well as the egotism and how it’s come to define a generation of digital natives, both in how they talk to themselves and in how they both navigate and feed into mass communication.
