Arms of Kismet

Arms of Kismet is singer-songwriter Mark Doyon. “My Projection of You” is the new single.

"What we see online isn't real... It's a projection. In the new song we’re watching an aspirational home movie a person has made about herself. Her Instagram feed is revealing, telling in ways she might not see. So we ponder these poses — of fun, joy, fulfillment, success — while curious about the person behind them."

The AoK collective includes John Lee Sanders (Randy Newman, Jimmy Page), Audrey Karrasch (ALKE, The Voice), Eamon Loftus, Kowtow Popof, Steve Burdette, Chris Armes, and Ritchie Rubini (The Caulfields). The mastering of the new songs is by Brian Lucey.

Recent press: V13, Glide Magazine, Jammerzine.

AoK has a warm, analog vibe that sounds as natural in a coffeehouse as it does on a car radio. Guitars and dancebeats coat sugary melodies and fractured lyrics, blending genres in offbeat and revelatory ways.

Brooding and poppy, funny and foreboding, it’s toe-tapping, tragicomic rock ’n’ roll.
