Hailing from the Greek capital of Athens, Iam Nothe is the new solo project Spyreas Sid who made his name as the frontman of rock band Cyanna from 1999 when it was formed until 2013 and then five-piece outfit Cyanna Mercury for three years from 2014.
When his life took a dark shift over the last few years, the artist decided to part ways with his band-based work and venture out as a solo act, adopting the moniker Iam Nothe as a space to let his true sonic vision come to fruition. Taking full control of the songwriting, arrangement and performance, he draws on the retro alternative rock sound of his previous musical work paired with tinges of psychedelic tones and modern folk stylings.
Unveiling his new sound as a solo artist, last year he linked up with Blvck Disco to collaborate on his debut single “Lord You Are The Cure”. Then featuring on The Page of Cups track “MIST”, he dropped his sophomore single “Babylon Burn” before releasing his debut album The Grand Design.
Lifted from the album comes the title track “The Grand Design”, which delivers an epic classic rock sound that channels the sonic aesthetic of artists such as Led Zeppelin. Full of grooving rhythm and impassioned vocal work that trades lines with euphoric lead guitar, with “The Grand Design”, Iam Nothe shares a dazzling rock outing that’s as timeless as it is memorable.
Produced by Alex Bolpasis alongside Spyreas Sid, “The Grand Design” is paired with a new music video featuring an edit of the artist’s parents wedding filmed in Athens in 1976. Shot on 8mm film, the scenes of Kiki and Michael setting up their own ‘grand design’ finally gets the fitting score it deserves from their son forty six years later.
