Sir Royal Fresh: Taking ATL's Triple Threat Sound to New Heights
In the city where the likes of Outkast and Goodie Mob helped define a generation, a fresh voice is rising—rewriting what it means to be from Atlanta.
Inspired by the success of Rex Orange County, who released his first album at the age of 16, Teo decided to record his first EP with producer Roy Borland. The result was "Let It Bloom," a warm and upbeat track that showcases Teo's love for cinematography. The song features samples from the classic film "The Apartment" by Billy Wilder, adding a layer of depth to the already engaging track.
In addition to his love for film, Teo's music is also influenced by American folk and the indie rock scene. His second track, "(The Place)" was inspired by the music of Bon Iver and the soundtrack to "Once," while his third track, "April," is influenced by the more recent sounds of Frank Ocean and James Blake.
Teo's passion for film extends beyond just his music, as he has also directed his own music videos with the help of friends. With an EP on the way and plans for future collaborations, Teo is just getting started on his musical journey. As he puts it, "It makes me very happy everything that is happening around me and I hope it's just the beginning."
