Spiro is an American songwriter and record producer, born on March 28, 1957 in Seattle, Washington. With a unique blend of folk and contemporary music, Spiro has captivated audiences worldwide with their mesmerizing melodies and heartfelt lyrics.
Similar to *Sam Sweeney*, *Lady Maisery*, and *Spiers & Boden*, Spiro's music transcends genres and creates a truly immersive experience for listeners. Drawing inspiration from traditional folk music as well as modern influences, Spiro's sound is both timeless and innovative.
With a discography that includes collaborations with renowned artists such as *Bellowhead* and *Lau*, Spiro has established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. Their unique soundscapes have earned them critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base.

For those already familiar with Spiro's thoroughly modernist take on generations-old English tunes, 'The Vapourer' presents something a little different. With tracks recorded by Portishead's Adrian Utley - two arranged by Adrian for Moog synthesizers - and three live recordings, the new mini album spotlights this highly unique quartet's approach to music making. The three tracks recorded at WOMAD Charlton Park 2012 capture the sheer energy and dazzling musicianship of the live Spiro experience, described by The Arts Desk as "hypnotic and fluid enough to have a distinctly physical effect" and by The Scotsman as "gorgeous melodies and grooves - iridescent vitality and rigorous technical precision - with a sprinkling of mischief."
