Seth Faergolzia

Seth Faergolzia is a multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter who has garnered critical acclaim for his unique blend of avant-garde and folk music. He is the frontman for experimental rock band Dufus, whose 2003 album 1:3:1 was hailed by AllMusic as "the kind of record that could potentially change a listener's life." In addition to his work with Dufus, Faergolzia has also released solo albums and performed as a solo artist on stages around the world. Dufus and Faergolzia are set to release a 12-album series in early 2023, showcasing the band's eclectic and experimental sound. Following the release, Faergolzia will embark on a tour of the West Coast and Europe, performing solo using a loop station and his powerful voice. These shows will give fans the opportunity to experience Faergolzia's music in a more intimate setting, and will showcase his incredible range as a musician and performer. "We're thrilled to be able to share this new music with our fans around the world," said Faergolzia. "This album series represents the next chapter in our musical journey, and we can't wait to see where it takes us." Faergolzia's music has been described as "like Johnny Cash on 5 double-espressos" and "whip-smart pop song writing, intricately clever wordplay." He has played at festivals such as End of the Road and Greenman in the UK, Zappanale in Germany, and One of a Million in Switzerland, and has supported acts like Animal Collective, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Langhorne Slim. The quartet Multibird, Faergolzia's latest project, consists of Seth on acoustic guitar and vocal loops, Shaun on electric guitar and vocals, Luke on bass and keys, and Emily on vocals, trumpet, and percussion. With their soaring group vocals, the band creates a communal atmosphere with their music, which ranges from expansive improvisations to soft, touching songs. Faergolzia's enigmatic voice, captivating presence, and inimitable song structures anchor the band's enthusiastic sound.
