Theo Angell was “raised in a house without a television” by a Baptist preacher in the hills south of Portland, Oregon. Gospel roots soon tapped into the mycelium substrate and this late bloomer skipped over punk and grunge and stumbled into the post-no-wave mid-90’s NYC scene. Home recording in apartments on 4-track tape with or without the band Hall of Fame were his first forays in music production. Touring Europe with American outcasts Jackie-O Mtherfcker strengthened his tendencies to shamanism and soon after he began putting out solo albums that were somehow an amalgam of this whole mess called “freak-folk” and “weird America”.
Also known as an experimental video artist in New York, he composed soundtrack music for his own films. He left NYC in 2010 for the wilds of the qathet region and family life. These days he’s into beats and lyrical tunes.
