Tone

TONE, real name Basil Anthony Harewood is a South London based Musician, Producer & Songwriter, a CURL collective member and half of the short-lived punk-duo, Farai.
With a mixtape already under his belt, one that he says was thrown together on a whim; the South-London based musician released his debut album “So I Can See You” via Rhythm Section on March 4th 2022.


This new body of work was created during the pregnancy and subsequent birth of his daughter. TONE was compelled to capture this significant moment, recording mostly at night, with his new life and old life in mind. The album is less a departure of who he was but an embrace of the future and the new life that arrives with beginning a family. Each track was recorded on a Tascam 38 tape machine in the studio he set up with Mica Levi and Coby Sey in Hither Green with the drums, played by Marc Pell (Good Sad Happy Bad, Suitman Jungle) were recorded at Andy Ramsey’s (Stereolab) studio Press Play.


Across the 11 tracks, we hear tender guitar riffs and off-beat R&B elements press up against influences of dub and shoegaze leaving you with a woozy afterglow. TONE’s distinctive vocals are complemented by the familiar voices of Coby Sey on “So I Can See You”, Fran Lobo on “From the North” and Roxanne Tataei on “Make It Drop”.
