Nico Fox performs dark pop hymns as Real Clothes, weaving digital prayers for a spiritless age. Glittering synths and folk lullabies weave tales of heartache, loss, and redemption. Birthed from the longing of roots rock folk, Nico has traveled back and forth across the country picking up influences from industrial EBM, folk, Haitian kompa, and the Appalachia.

Based in New York City.

There once was a girl who washed up from the sea
She had seashells and ochre in her hair
She found herself in a city where the land threatened to swallow her whole

Rain never fell from the sky and she grew thirsty
When they found her she claimed Neptune as her home
Where shadows ebbed and flowed with the winds that rang from her people’s cries

Where tears stayed frozen at her canthi
Where she drank the milk of Nereid
And Galatea struck the sky white as semen
