Biography
Many new artists try to side themselves with a particular scene or establish a new one of their own. But 21-year-old London based singer, songwriter, producer and fully-formed pop star Archeo is not the poster boy for this scene, or the breakout artist for that movement. “I’ve not crossed over from anything,” he says, “and I’m not coming from any niche. I make pop music. Pop to me is a constantly changing landscape, and I’m proud to be part of that tradition.”
The funny thing is, by not trying to fit in anywhere, he fits in everywhere. Listen to Archeo’s razor-sharp pop songs with one ear open, and they have the mainstream-friendly ring of those uber-produced radio hits teams of pros spend months crafting for whoever eventually takes them off the peg. Listen more closely and you hear common qualities between these songs; these well-defined, dynamic, vocally-driven songs are more sharply observed and cared-about than they might first have seemed, with lyrics about ambition and darkness and ups and downs. And you may question what exactly it’s all about. Open your eyes and there’s your answer: a 24-carat, 21st Century pop superstar in waiting. There are no puppet-masters here, just one man at the heart of everything.
This’ll be no surprise if you’ve picked up on the beautifully executed, pop funk of future anthem ‘The Payback’, the furiously bass-driven ‘Young N Reckless’ or enjoyed the romantic sheen of ‘Extra-Ordinary’, but Archeo has what he calls a “mish-mash philosophy”.
