Piers Faccini

Piers Faccini (born Piers Damian G. Faccini, 1970) is an English singer, painter and songwriter. Piers Faccini is an accomplished artist who has created sonic landscapes of musical history spanning soul, jazz, African grooves and baroque textures over the last two decades. His songs tap into conventions used to adapt traditional cultures' music for use to convey an emotional response to contemporary spiritual and terrestrial modes of belonging. Faccini's seven studio albums offer varied perspectives cocooned in sentiment while ultimately exploring melodies and lyrics that encourage a greater awareness of our sides large and small. Anchoring his repertoire in blues based harmonies, he interprets original material emerging as much from thought process as sound tangible feelings hosted sometimes by transcendental musical atmospheres. His latest released album named ‘Between Dogs And Wolves’ delves into humanity and folklore with layered multi –instrumental arrangements whereas still reinforcing radio play friendly hints balanced by more reinvented expressions quoting folk music from Eastern Mediterranean areas but centered mostly on chosen underlying minor tonalities. From a bevy of hits and masterpieces it may be hard to select Piers Faccini at best; choose ‘A Bird In The Hand’ or ‘Diaposon Berylliuim Suleraswifi’ carefully to explore what can sometimes be felt melodically familiar yet new performant delights originate through the listening experience like siren calls not rarely touched deeply upon one's dusty memory paths.
