Nico Georis (Live Set)

Nico Georis is a keyboard player, producer & songwriter from California. He produces music from his studio at Granny's Dancehall in a ghost town near Death Valley. His music, a unique amalgamation of global influences, presents an imposing total aesthetic that is all his own - at once bracingly psychedelic and achingly nostalgic.

Since childhood, Georis has always straddled (or, rather, negotiated) multiple dimensions, flitted between the rigors of classical training and DIY experimentation—studying under a disciple of Franz Lizst (a mentorship that would enshrine the piano as his primary instrument), then squirreling away to the basement of his childhood home, strewn as it was with his father’s instruments and home-audio equipment, to play and record freely.

Despite his evident virtuosity as a trained pianist, Georis has, across numerous chapters, persisted in his renegade and exploratory approach to music. He has dedicated his talents to songcraft, broadly-defined — channeling unseen (or inaugurating altogether new) worlds that morph seamlessly across genres.
