Farro is a duo from São Paulo, formed in 2009 by Bruno Morais on vocals and guitar and Rafael Malenotti on bass and keyboards. Their music often leans into themes of absence and melancholy, with songs like 'Say The Word' and 'O Que Sobrou?' carrying a somber, introspective weight. They've released four albums, starting with 'Ausência' in 2011, followed by 'Tudo que eu sempre quis' in 2013, 'Recife' in 2016, and 'Liquidificador' in 2019.
Their sound mixes folk, rock, and ambient elements, giving tracks like 'Bom Ator' and 'Finalmente' an ethereal, raw quality. The duo has faced some criticism for focusing heavily on loss and pain, but they've kept to their own path without much compromise.
Farro's work doesn't shout for attention; it's more the kind of thing you put on when you want something reflective. Songs like 'Lose You' typify their approach, spare, emotional, and a bit haunting. They haven't chased trends or big commercial hits, which might explain why they've stayed under the radar outside specific circles in Brazil.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
