bio
caco (he/she/they) is a multi-instrumentalist producer and songwriter from a suburb you've thankfully never heard of. a jazz saxophonist by force and a vocalist at heart, their new solo effort gracefully walks the spectrum between alternative-r&b, hyperpop, and core.
following years of questionable soloing in early morning ensemble, barely conscious hip-hop recordings, and a life steeped in the afro-caribbean tradition, caco has formed a sound as unique as the wrinkles in their spliffs. everyone's have them, but these? these are hers.
the artists namesake is their father's nickname, signifying their familial roots in music.
she released part one of the patchnotes trilogy in june 2024 after a few long, smoky years of writing in her bedroom. their second part of their second ep has dropped in autumn 2024!
caco is grateful to his influences- braxton cook, underscores, umi, and many more- as well as some friends & family who helped out on the way.

"caco has mastered the art of duality, allowing songs to exist separately and together-this explorative nature pours over into their latest effort, ‘patchnotes ep 2.1 (happy/sad)’ without trying too hard to be “different” and instead embracing natural quirks to express their truth."
"as mentioned before, the release of this record sets the precedent for where music should be and where it's going. like a needle in a haystack, i don’t believe we’re going to get a record that is as pretty, profound, and eclectic anytime soon. caco remains ahead of the curve."

on jan. 15, internet-based artist, saxophonist and producer caco is independently releasing their first single “and i know” along with a b-side track, “interlood,” across all digital streaming platforms. after a year spent recording their debut, self-titled album, she is excited to introduce listeners to their psychedelic, latin-tinged strain of alternative r&b and lo-fi hip-hop.
