Josh Epstein and Daniel Zott formed JR JR (known then as Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr) in Detroit, Michigan in 2009. Prior to pairing up, the twosome had been searching for a creatively fluid situation where they could pool their talents as songwriters, singers, multi-instrumentalists, and producers. Since joining forces, the pair has released 4 albums, 5 EPs, and several standalone singles. Select career highlights include a number of memorable appearances on KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic," Conan, and The Late Late Show with James Cordon; performances at major festivals like Bonnarroo, Austin City Limits, and Lollapallooza; and critical acclaim from a wide variety of outlets. JR JR's music has been featured in many films, television shows, and commercials, soundtracking culture for over a decade, and attracting new fans along the way. This includes campaigns for elite brands such as Chase, Microsoft, YouTube, Guess?, Major League Baseball, and Acura, and in-scene placements in 13 Reasons Why, Togetherness, Atypical, Sausage Party, Bad Moms, and I Am Cait. Their ubiquity in pop culture even saw them stepping outside their typical roles as musicians to act in Arrested Development and Comedy Central's Detroiters, and pen their own monthly column for ESPN.com.
Absofacto
hi i'm absofacto. i like to make music that makes life feel a bit more magical, surreal and fascinating. doing this stuff is my way of dancing around in the intricate absurdities of existence and celebrating its strange, fragile beauty.
i had a pretty big song called dissolve. it was the first time i tapped into a certain emotional color that is now my home base in some ways, but i like to play with a fuller spectrum of emotion too. NITESHIFT is a good entry point to the deepest end of the absofacto pool.
thank you for being here absofacto
