ACL 2024: Eyedress

Saturday at 2:20pm.  Per Wikipedia:

Idris Ennolandy Vicuña (born May 28, 1990), known professionally as Eyedress, is a Filipino singer-songwriter, rapper, and record producer...Eyedress was raised in an area in the Philippines which he described as "ghetto", and began playing the guitar at a young age. He and his family moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where he was introduced to punk music through the "gangsters" and "anarchist types" in his neighborhood. At age 13, he and his family moved to California after his father, an animator, started working with 20th Century Fox. While living in Orange County, California, he joined the crust punk band Liberal Underground as a bassist.

"Something About You" is nice. Dreampop. 

"Romantic Lover" is lo-fi chill.

This is his big hit. Reminds me of The Cure. It has 850 Million streams on Spotify. Wow.
