Maraschino is the new solo project from Los Angeles-based electronic pop artist Piper Durabo. Like its name suggests, Maraschino is strong and sweet, with a glossy sheen. Taking cues from a diverse array of experimental pop icons including Blondie, Suicide and Saâda Bonaire, Maraschino is mystic disco-pop for introverts. Crystalline melodies emerge from waves of swirling, hypnotic synths and Piper’s seductive vocals, and linger in your ears long after the songs are over. Maraschino’s debut EP will be out spring of 2019.
