Jonathan Rado

On top of his work as a producer for artists like Weyes Blood and Father John Misty, Jonathan Rado brings his '70s-modeled, analog-based pop sound to songs of his own. Rado was one half of '60s pop-borrowing indie duo Foxygen, but branched out into production and solo work before Foxygen's 2019 breakup, and continued down that path with albums like his 2023 solo set For Who the Bell Tolls For. California native Jonathan Rado began Foxygen with his friend Sam France in 2005, while the two were still teenagers. When Foxygen got around to releasing albums on a more worldwide level in the early 2010s, their acclaim and press profile grew exponentially. After a particularly draining Foxygen tour that spanned 2012 and 2013, Rado announced he would be releasing a solo album, though his main gig was not breaking up. Said album, Law and Order, was released on the Woodsist label in late 2013 and bore many of the same Brill Building, British Invasion, and late-'60s pop reference points as Rado's songs for Foxygen. Around the same time, Rado began producing for other artists, bringing in ideas from time spent with his production mentor Richard Swift. He quickly built up an impressive résumé of production credits that included work with the Lemon Twigs, Whitney, Beach Fossils, Father John Misty, and others. Rado's production was key to Weyes Blood's 2019 epic Titanic Rising, as well as Killers material from the same time. Foxygen called it a day in 2019, and Rado focused on production. He had released a faithful re-creation of Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run album in its entirety in 2017, but Rado's next fully solo effort would be 2023's For Who the Bell Tolls For. The album included guest performances from members of the Lemon Twigs, Pure Bathing Culture, and Lana Del Rey affiliate Drew Erickson.
