British singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist
Daniel O'Sullivan is a prolific, genre-bending performer whose solo work touches upon ambient, electro-acoustic pop, progressive classical composition, and hypnotic art-rock. Born in 1980 in Manchester,
O'Sullivan first came to prominence working in a bevy of progressive ensembles including
Guapo,
Ulver,
Sunn O))),
Æthenor, and others. He also paired with fellow songwriter/guitarist
Alexander Tucker to form the psych-pop influenced
Grumbling Fur in 2011, issuing a handful of albums on the Thrill Jockey label. In 2017,
O'Sullivan released his debut solo album,
VELD, which found him exploring a sound akin to early
Brian Eno. ~ Matt Collar
