Franco-American brothers Elliott and Virgile Arndt, aka Faux Real, occupy a space somewhere between pop duo, performance act and DIY spectacle. Combining infectious pop hooks with glam rock, punk, electronic music, surreal humour and maximalist choreography, they have built a reputation for live shows that are as physical and theatrical as they are musically immediate. Following their acclaimed debut ‘Faux Ever’, the duo return with ‘Poison Time’, a more personal and direct record that explores intimacy, identity, mythology, contradiction and the absurdity of being alive without sacrificing their instinct for spectacle. Their growing international profile has seen them tour with Wet Leg and Metronomy, perform across Europe and North America, and earn support from BBC Radio 6 Music, Stereogum, Consequence, The Guardian, i-D and Paper. Describing themselves as “Method Musicians”, Faux Real treat music, visuals, fashion, character and performance as part of one constantly evolving creative world.
