Last updated:
A one man band creates all elements of their music independently, handling composition, performance, recording, and production without collaboration. This approach often results in highly personal, experimental work that reflects a singular artistic vision, ranging from lo-fi bedroom recordings to polished multi-instrumental arrangements. The tag encompasses DIY ethos and complete creative control, celebrating the auteur musician who builds entire sonic worlds alone.
