untitled (halo) - untitled (halo) (2026)

Born, in part, from a feeling that there was a “lack of a scene or music in LA, longtime friends and band members Ariana Mamnoon, Jack Dione, Jay Are, and Nicholas Noneman had already spent years moving through LA’s DIY community, absorbing its overlapping histories before eventually finding one another. That shared history has become part of untitled (halo)’s identity, the culmination of years spent contributing to, and being shaped by, the scenes around them.

Through their self-curated events, including their curation of a 40-person group art show This Heaven Knows Bars with Obey, and their ongoing party series held in various local venues, they have created the spaces and music community they once yearned for. Written over the course of a year in their Glassell Park studio, their debut album is about the act of construction: how memories are edited, identities are formed, and personal mythology is built from the pieces left behind.
