¡FIASCO!
¡FIASCO! was first assembled in 2016 building a unique repertoire of sounds and materials rooted in droning folk songs, jittery hip-hop grooves, grunge, and punk rock. ¡FIASCO! was signed to Unit Records in 2023 and released their Unit debut Anger Artist in January 2024. This follows two independent releases Arson (2020) and Post-Truth (2021), which received substantial regional acclaim and secured the band performances at the DC Jazz Festival, and with acts like Messthetics and Harriet Tubman. Throughout years of club gigs, experimentation with original and re-imagined repertoire, and growing sophistication with electronics and effects, combining a jazz form with rock aesthetics and attitude, ¡FIASCO! built a following and a sound uniquely their own.
