Maria Chiara Argirò is an accomplished Italian pianist and composer with over a decade of experience in London’s vibrant jazz, classical, and electronic music scenes.
Her latest album, Forest City, was released in May 2022 on the Innovative Leisure, label. This concept album is a remarkable exploration of the complex interplay between nature and the city, weaving together elements of jazz, folk, trip-hop, and alt-pop.
Drawing on her extensive jazz background and love of progressive and folk music from the 1970s, Argirò layers acoustic and electronic sounds to create a stunningly original sound. For the first time, she also lends her own voice to the album, inspired by the work of Björk and her collaborations with talented artists.
Despite the challenges of producing an album during lockdown, Argirò’s self-production of Forest City in her bedroom and studio reveals her artistic freedom and versatility.
The album’s latest single, “Unreal,” is a haunting track that exemplifies Argirò’s distinctive sound.
