Holy Pinto is the musical project of Aymen Saleh - a songwriter originally from Canterbury, England, now based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In this special one-off event at the Vivarium, we present an exclusive listen of the forthcoming Holy Pinto record alongside a Q+A hosted by local journalist and Pitchfork writer, Evan Rytlewski.
It began as a session in Bartees Strange’s Washington DC Basement in ’21. It ended as one person feverishly stitching together sounds on their laptop in a Milwaukee living-room in ’24. A patchwork of songs, late night conversations and wild ideas which coalesced after four years of a ‘rip it up and start again’ approach. Unique sounds in strange rooms, late nights in bars, and watching others glide through their rites of passage - handling their relationships with partners, friends and loved ones.
