Hir-O
-
Hir-O’s (pronounced like “hero”) immersive sound—which deftly meshes electronic elements with the soul and jazz rooted in his hometown of Detroit—has earned him a reputation as one of the city’s rising, innovative musical voices. After getting his start in the region’s beat battle circuit, he built his early fan base with projects like the acclaimed instrumental album “The Voyage Home” and “The Freakstrumental Joint,” a multimedia experience that meshes music, poetry and photography. Work with frequent collaborators Chris Orrick of Ugly Heroes (“The Kick,” BLAT! Pack/Fat Beats 2013) and Doss The Artist (several projects, including the 2012 Christmas EP “Peace King”) have landed coverage on the likes of Huffington Post, MTV Rap Fix, COMPLEX, and more. In 2015 he release Emissary with Mellow Orange. After a multi-year hiatus, Hir-O is back on the scene with music partner Noveliss of Clear Soul Forces, looking to update his older catalogue to the streaming world!
