Blurred, painterly portrait of Kostandino against a sunset

Hi, I'm Kosta.

Bay Area singer, songwriter and vocal mixer making alternative / indie pop.

I started writing in quarantine as therapy after a hard season: putting down my childhood dog Max, my dad's surgery, months stuck at home. What began as corny lyrics turned into a real passion.

I taught myself to sing listening to Dominic Fike and Omar Apollo, then spent the last few years shaping a sound that's my own. The songs feel like a casual conversation that turns into something you remember: honest, a little goofy, a little serious, always me in the middle.

I wear my heart on my sleeve. ADHD and Tourette's make me all-or-nothing. When I'm into something I go deep, and that focus shows up in the music. I write about relationships, overthinking, and the cinematic little loops of everyday life.
