HOMECOMING: A DOCUMENTARY ON N8NOFACE
Hailing from Tucson, Arizona, synth punk artist N8NOFACE is now firmly established in the Los Angeles music scene, and gained a wide following during the early stages of the pandemic in 2020. Known for his intense, high-energy and cathartic live shows, N8 performs with only an SP-404 and a Korg Minilogue for accompaniment, while screaming, rapping and ranting in an unmistakably unique cadence.
