Graffiti Welfare is a Denver-based alt psych-pop artist whose music captures the essence of coming-of-age in the 21st century, conveyed through an experimental and introspective lens. His debut album, "Revolving Shores", weaves together a narrative of uncertainty and introspection that powerfully transports and resonates with his listeners.

Graffiti Welfare's journey as a bedroom producer began after acquiring and experimenting with a used Roland Juno-G. After moving to Colorado for grad school, he switched to producing in Ableton, and released his debut EP, "Into the Soul of Space," in 2016. His music has since caught the attention of indie Italian record label MilleVille Music, and he has gained global traction on meditative playlists.

Graffiti Welfare has drawn inspiration from a range of artists, from Tame Impala to Pink Floyd. In "Revolving Shores", he explores the unknown, meditates on the fleeting nature of life, and pays homage to his grandparents, who passed away during the making of the album.

Despite the lush, experimental nature of his music, he is able to convey concrete meaning. Through the use of luminous reverb and ethereal vocals, he makes his audience feel that they are floating in a psychedelic tapestry of sound, evoking a sense of detachment and dissociation. Through his transcendental music, he captures the feelings of being human: the anxieties of entering adulthood, disillusionment, nostalgia, cyclicality, and catharsis.

"There are few better ways to sonically inject a little color into your soul" (A&R Factory) than by listening to the soundscapes Graffiti Welfare has artfully crafted.
