Sign of Angelo emerged from being the musical creator of the heavily-blogged electro duo Muchuu, back when he was 18 who were quickly picked up by Tom Robinson, Huw Stephens and Nick Grimshaw in 2011 and with tracks picked as ‘Record of the Week’ on BBC Radio 1. After the band ended in 2012 to the disappointment of their global fan base, George embarked on his solo venture.
Nine years of honing, trial, and testing lyrics have been a labour of love and a creative wrestle to discover and perfect the sound of Sign of Angelo. For George it was a near decade of love and loss, family, death and dancing all intertwining with and inspiring his music.
When the pandemic hit in 2020 George had a growing conviction and urgency to finish the album, and used extra hours, musician friends sending files remotely and vocals recorded in a cupboard to pull it together. Sign of Angelo has been made artist of the week by BBC Introducing Hereford and Worcester, just a couple of months after making the music public.
The first album ‘To The Human’ is out now and was released on the 16th July 2021. With all songs written and produced by George, the album maintains the magic and ethereal vibe of Muchuu but with a new sonic and lyrical perspective. George also is a video creator and has made home made music videos with nothing but himself, a camera and a few interesting ideas to try and bring the message of the music to life.
