Azaria Franco is a multidisciplinary artist and songwriter from Brighton, UK.
Drawing influence from a mix of genres, Azaria plays with the edges of alternative folk. He weaves creative melodies with rich harmonies, drawing on his poetry to inspire vulnerable storytelling.
“I am an artist & activist, by profession & by nature. I feel the traditional systems that the binary, rigid, capitalist world enforces often don’t support me, or offer me the freedom i need. So I endeavour to create art, music, spaces, that allow for me to reclaim my creative freedom. I take inspiration from the real, authentic, natural worlds and emotions. the spaces people forget to look at and the places we all dream of ending up. I spend hours deep in nature where the pace of things is slower. Here, i make the most beautiful art. Outside of the city and outside of the expectations that this society has placed upon me.”
Azaria has been writing original music since he was 14, on a guitar his grandad bought him. His first single River Of Bones is out now, allong with the Official Music Video.
