Francois Peglau is a Peruvian/Argentinean French musician that left Peru (and his indie band Los Fuckin Sombreros there for better horizons) and now lives in London. Once there, he started recording songs in his home studio along with the help of some musicians. His music is lo-fi pop, which he likes to call Socio-Peruvian lo fi pop (and since we don't really know any other pop/indie artist from Peru we'll give him that). All his music is available for free from his BandCamp page (so feel free to check/download it from the link below) as it's really worth the try. Beautiful lo-fi melodies with witty social lyrics and a touch of South American temper.
Besides the music, Francois also has an interesting video project where, with the help of friends, he is trying to make a video for every one of his songs. Some of the videos are quite nice, like his latest for One Minute to Midnight Dream (So Sad) below. You can find the full list of all his videos a bit further down. This is the first Peruvian artist we review in Athens66 and are quite proud of it!
