SIPHO. gives an intimate performance of his ethereal track ‘ELEVATION’ in a box of the Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall.
Thanks to his unique songwriting on tracks such as ‘RACIST / PARADISE’ and ‘USELESS / DUTCH’, Birmingham native SIPHO. (pronounced see-po) ‪@siphotheizm‬ has enjoyed a recent rise to revered status.
The product of an eclectic musical palette, his music reflects an influence drawn from recent inspirations such as Earl Sweatshirt, Solange, and Frank Ocean, as well as rock bands including Paramore, Three Days Grace and Foo Fighters.
Released in 2023, SIPHO’s debut album PRAYERS & PARANOIA tackles topics such as uncertainty, self-doubt and hope that mark out coming of age as an adult, as well as the egotism and how it’s come to define a generation of digital natives, both in how they talk to themselves and in how they both navigate and feed into mass communication. ‘ELEVATION’ is the first track on that album.
This performances was recorded in the Royal Festival Hall, London, June 2024.
