One-person Band

The "one-person band" genre is an eclectic music category characterized by solo artists who single-handedly create their soundscapes, often blending various musical styles, instruments, and technologies to craft a full-bodied auditory experience. Unlike traditional solo acts, these artists use loop pedals, multi-instrumentalism, and digital production techniques to simulate the complexity of a band. This genre pushes the boundaries of live performance and musicianship, showcasing the versatility and ingenuity of artists in building rich, multi-layered compositions. Whether drawing from folk, electronic, rock, or experimental influences, each one-person band brings a unique approach to their craft, resulting in a deeply personal and innovative sonic signature for acts such as Author & Punisher, known for his industrial doom metal sound, or the ambient, introspective melodies of Planning For Burial.
