Deaf Poets

**Deaf Poets** are a Miami-based garage rock duo known for their gritty, high-energy sound that blends bluesy riffs with grunge-inspired rawness. Formed by Sean Wouters (vocals/guitar) and Nico Espinosa (vocals/drums), the pair have been crafting moody, riff-driven tracks since their early days in South Florida’s indie scene. Their music, like the swampy vibes of *Lost in Magic City* and the punchy grooves of *4150*, channels a retro-meets-modern edge, earning them slots touring with acts like The Black Angels and The Orwells. Recent releases like *Cigarette* and *What Am I to Do* showcase their knack for pairing brooding lyrics with unapologetically loud, blues-rock energy, while live recordings (see: *Degenerate Mind (Live)*) prove they’re just as explosive onstage as in the studio. Whether they’s wrestling with existential angst or cranking out earworm hooks, Deaf Poets keep their roots planted in sweat-soaked, no-frills rock ’n’ roll.
