Secretly Canadian Publishing is ecstatic to announce the signing of Jonathan Rado – songwriter, staid performer, and an evangelical producer. The 23-year-old California native’s solo project, fashioned on brief sabbatical from his main project, Foxygen, is a deliciously self-conscious piece of esoteric apocrypha. His cathartic records are designed only to liberate the body and break the awkwardness of obsessive, existential silence. Rado’s debut solo album, “Law and Order,” is crafted by a serious conductor of gracelessness and good-humored imperfection, championing simplicity, catchiness, and cranberry-plush playfulness without ever maliciously satirizing the material of inspiration.
