After a series of self-released cassettes and digital EPs, Jonny Telafone released his first official album Romeo Must Cry on Chapter
Music in February 2015.
The album presents a darkly sexual near future, both disturbing and
alluring. The world could end at any minute, oblivion lurks around
every corner, but there are still human connections to be made
amidst a gleaming metropolis.
