Washed Out’s music, led by Ernest Greene, blends immersive vocals and expansive soundscapes that evoke timeless memories. Dubbed the “Godfather of Chillwave,” Greene’s latest album, Notes From a Quiet Life, marks a bold shift as his first fully self-produced work, reflecting his move from Atlanta to a rural horse farm called Endymion. Inspired by visual artists and focusing on creative freedom over productivity, Greene crafts a deeply personal, intuitive album shaped by his evolving identity. This fifth album intertwines his music with painting and sculpture, emphasizing pure artistic expression and a connection to nature.
