Graffiti Welfare is a Denver-based alt psych-pop artist whose music captures the essence and anxiety of the 21st century, conveyed through an introspective, experimental lens. His debut album, “Revolving Shores”, weaves a minimalistic narrative through waves of cosmic uncertainty and bitter-sweet nostalgia. Despite the lush, experimental approach, Revolving Shores spins with concrete emotion. Underneath the family photo and layers of reverb, there’s a centrifugal sway of detachment as if you’re looking down from the surface on: adulthood, disillusionment, nostalgia, enlightenment, cyclicality, catharsis, etc.

“When I try to explain what I mean by digging a sound, I suddenly realize that I’m not really saying anything. And yet there are states of consciousness in which you can listen to sound and realize that that is the whole point of being alive. Just to go with this particular energy manifestation that is happening right at this moment. To be it. The whole world is the energy playing at doing all this. Like a kaleidoscope, jazzing” - Alan Watts
