Dan Rico’s music is a kaleidoscope of surreal sounds and shifting scenes, blending gritty rock roots with the limitless potential of bedroom production. From his early days playing punk in the Midwest to fronting a Prince cover band and performing jazz standards on classical guitar in gallery spaces, Rico’s journey has been anything but conventional. Now, based in New York, he’s evolved into a producer on the cutting edge of strange new frontiers in sound, sculpting ‘Fictiones’ – an alter ego where coyotes howl, skeletons dance, and swans glide up inverted rainbows.
