ARE YOU REAL?
alternative / indie pop
From the lo-fi songwriting of the beginnings to his recent electronic productions, Are You Real's music has always been the most authentic exploration of an inner world, magical and obscure. Behind the weird moniker is Andrea, singer-songwriter from Venice, Italy.
His debut album Songs Of Innocence was recorded with a band and supported by a small European tour. In the second album, Songs From My Imaginary Youth, Andrea got more personal, playing every instrument. In the recent songs, his music becomes electronic, both dark and dreamy.
I’ve always felt like I don’t belong in this reality. Like there was another world, somewhere. Music is my way to get there.
In 2018 Andrea founded the record label Beautiful Losers. Since then he has been working as a producer for other artists, like An Early Bird, About Blank, Gintsugi, A Red Idea, Mått Mūn, Alice Di Lauro. He’s actually recording his third album.
