Richard Orofino, a Brooklyn-based singer songwriter/producer, in possession of a broad palette of musical skills and boundless inspiration. He began writing and producing music in 2013, starting on piano and later drums and guitar, all while honing his production skills crafting bedroom pop gems from the attic of his parent’s house on Long Island, NY. The evolution of his songwriting and vocal style resulted in 2019’s excellent “Bella Notte,” produced with Francois Tetaz (Gotye). His debut set forth an artistic vision and sound that, while unique in the pop landscape, incorporates diverse influences including Sade, Elliott Smith, New Order & Cocteau Twins. The evolution continued with the 2020’s self-produced “SPELL” which combines these elements into a beautiful blend that will be familiar to all his fans – past, present, and future. 2021’s “Chimaera”, also self-produced exhibits a more organic acoustic feel. 2022 featured standout singles “Bending”, “Superstar” and “Johnnycakes”.
