Franck Hueso, better known by his stage name Carpenter Brut, is a French synthwave artist from Poitiers.[1][2] Little personal information is known about him aside from his French origin. His anonymity is a deliberate artistic choice in order to place more importance on the music itself rather than the identity of the musician behind it.[3] To date he has released three EPs, which were collected and released together under the title Trilogy in 2015; as well as the original album Leather Teeth in 2018. He has also contributed original music to a variety of soundtracks. He started writing music as Carpenter Brut with the intention of mixing sounds from horror films, metal, rock, and electronic music.[3] He has toured the United States and Europe, and in 2016 he toured the US with the Swedish heavy metal band Ghost.[4] In live performances Carpenter Brut is joined on stage by guitarist Adrien Grousset and drummer Florent Marcadet, both from the French metal band Hacride.[5][6]
