SkyDaddy

SkyDaddy

Skydaddy is the sonic culmination of the life and times of Rachid Fakhre. Having spent the last few years writing and producing as one half of the acclaimed musical duo Spang Sisters, he now ventures out on his own solo project, which infuses cello, violin, flute, piano and intricate vocal harmonies to embellish the delicately considered chamber-folk-rock songs he writes. Influences are clearly drawn from a wide range, with some pieces echoing the languid guitar work of Pancho Benavides and Ry Cooder; others, such as his forthcoming single ‘That Morning’, are booming ballads of love, joy, despair, death. Here is the voice of someone who has invariably been face to face with ego-death and sure enough, will rise from its ashes, gleaning what he can to construct the next.
