An ethereal emblem of emo rock, Brooklyn ’s Darro puts a modern spin on 2000s alternative trends. The singer/songwriter incorporates anthemic, pop-punk dynamics and passion-fueled lyrical thematics to create a distinctive style that’s grounded in the human experience—and a unique one at that.

Shortly after the release of his debut EP, ‘Nostalgia,’ in 2017, Darro received a precarious diagnosis. At the age of twenty-four, he’d developed a brain tumor that necessitated surgery and extensive rehabilitation. Just months after his emergence into the music scene, he found himself having to relearn not just how to sing, but to speak in general.

Miraculously, the musician began writing again in early 2018. His next single, “You’re Not Insane,” dropped in the summer of 2019 and garnered considerable attention, with the accompanying music video premiering as a Billboard exclusive the following month. He went on to drop two more standalone tracks, “Undefined” and “Paralyzed,” the latter of which premiered via V13.

His highly-anticipated, debut full-length album, Songs Of Recovery , dropped in November of 2020. The record, which chronicled the challenges the rising artist faced in light of his affliction, was met with critical acclaim. Charting at #11 on the iTunes Rock Albums and earning a feature alongside the likes of The Killers in ‘Music Connection Magazine,’ Darro unequivocally demonstrated his
potential as a mainstream success story.

Now working on the next iteration of his discography, he’s looking to demonstrate his progression and has teamed up accordingly with producer Kris Crummett (Dance Gavin Dance, nothing.nowhere, Sleeping With Sirens. 

Notedly, he seeks to modernize his sound even further, employing hip-hop and electronic elements to create danceable tracks that are still ripe with his signature emotionality.

“My next set of music goes in a more mature direction,” Darro explains, “Instead of writing songs only about the hardships of dealing with a brain tumor, these next set of songs will dive into the turmoil of failed relationships, emotional struggles of solitude and internal and external pressure to succeed in life.”
