$Flysword$, the artistic rebirth of Connor Drazil, formerly known as Faraday, signifies a profound evolution in his journey as a musician.
This transformation is not just a change in name; it’s the manifestation of a long-held vision. Connor is fully embracing an identity that has been waiting in the wings, ready to take flight. Flysword is a promise to listeners that they will find new worlds to discover, created by an artist who is as much a storyteller as he is a producer.
Connor’s past as Faraday was marked by a unique blend of progressive house and electronica that captivated dance floors and festivals around the globe. His residency at one of the DJ Mag’s Top 100 Nightclubs, from 2016-2018, showcased his dynamic ability to engage audiences and enabled him to develop his skill as a performer through trial by fire. His performances at Bumbershoot Festival, Paradiso in 2017, and Beyond Wonderland at The Gorge in 2021 left an indelible mark on the electronic music scene and cemented Connor as a pillar of the Seattle electronic music scene.
With Flysword, Connor carries forward the legacy of Faraday, infused with the momentum of his past achievements. He has shared the stage with artists like SG Lewis, Mat Zo, and Madeon, establishing himself as an artist with a unique sound that fits along other genre-bending pioneers in the industry. Connor also makes up 1/2 of the high octane house music duo, Farahry, whose energy injected brand of g-house and tech house has garnered notice from genre mainstays like Tchami, Matroda, and Masteria.
Flysword invites listeners to a realm where music is a conduit to transcendence, a sword that slices through the ordinary to reveal the extraordinary. This new chapter, while fresh, has been subtly inscribed in every performance, every production, every moment experienced as Faraday.
Flysword has arrived—let the odyssey commence.
