I had a great conversation with Tess Lyons at @rimonthly about making my new record, check it out at the bio’d link! Huge thanks to @planetblondes and @jamiecoelho for being so supportive of local artists and bringing our stories to a wider audience 🖤

John Faraone’s Newest Record, The Waves:
How his kid brain allowed for the art of self-expression. - by Mayté Antelo-Ovando.
Read the full interview with RI singer-songwriter John Faraone in May's print issue or online at MotifRI.com!
I’m incredibly grateful for all of the opportunities I’ve had to talk about my music with all the great media outlets that have kindly given me time, but this particular interview in @motifmagri , by my wonderful friend and birthday twin @enchanted_chica , was especially fun and meaningful. I think she did a remarkable job of capturing our conversation and detangling my rambling rat’s nest, and I hope you enjoy reading it (full link in my bio, free print copies at your nearest cool place to be). Come to my next solo show on May 7th at @gettiespvd with @thinlear , @niagaramoonmusic , and @_ssa_lin to hear the new songs and maybe I’ll talk about them in a much more clumsy and incoherent way! 🖤🧛🏻♂️
This work week has been… difficult… and coming home to find the newest issue of @motifmagri and the things that literally make my heart sing is … such a gift ❤️. Please read first, my interview with poet, musician, birthday twin @johnfaraone 🎶 Jf’s “Newest Record, The Waves! How his kid brain brain allowed for the art of self-expression” 🎶 and then read about another band he’s in (hint- it’s 90’s inspired- see next post).

The first Sad Songs @highmotorgrille was such a special night of not-so-cheery songs, a ton of laughs, and really not much in-between. How could Sad Songs 2: Acoustic Boogaloo possibly get any better? You invite @american_echoes , of course.
Catch an early dinner, drinks, and a sad (but not too sad) show with @iambernardjohn , @johnfaraone and @american_echoes .
Quick and dirty details:
🖤 Doors are at 6:30pm and the show starts at 7pm.
🖤 It’ll be seated and intimate in @highmotorgrille ’s lounge. 🖤 They’ll be serving dinner and drinks right to your table.
🖤 $7 at the door.
🖤 Show ends at 9:30ish, so if you play your cards right, you’ll be in bed in no time.
My new song A Ghost, A Feeling has been out for a month! Have you listened yet? If so, thank you, ilysm! If not, peep the bio’d link to find it on all the sites!
Huge thanks to my great friend @robduguay for doing a very sweet write up for my new single which drops TODAY! Check out the article, listen to the song (both linked in my bio), and come hear me play it live, tonight, 12/17, at @myrtle.rhodeisland ! I’ll be sharing the stage with @american_echoes and @oliviacharlottemusic , it’s going to be a very nice and fun and lovely time! 🖤
This photo was taken by my 5-year-old son on a disposable camera at our cousin’s wedding. A haphazardly-captured depiction of a beautiful moment in space and time. My only hope as a musician is to come close to that same outcome in songwriting. Over the past few years of writing and recording, with supreme help from @chillguys at @bignicestudio , I think we have achieved that goal with my new full-length album, “The Waves,” coming out this spring. This photo will serve as the cover art for the first single, “A Ghost, A Feeling,” which comes out 12/17. There’s a pre-save link in my bio, and it’d mean the world to me if you added it to your upcoming listening. 🖤
