About Flamingo Riot
I’m Brian O’Donnell, the artist behind Flamingo Riot. For me, music has always been more than sound—it’s a way to connect, slow down, and find beauty in the everyday. Flamingo Riot is where I bring together over 20 years of experience in electronic music, my love of ambient textures, and a lifelong passion for sound healing.
What started as a fascination with synthesizers and recording equipment has grown into a creative journey where music and healing come together. My mission is simple: to create music that moves you, helps you breathe easier, and inspires moments of clarity in an overwhelming world.
How It All Started
I spent my early career working behind the scenes in New York City’s legendary recording studios, helping shape some incredible albums as a ProTools editor and engineer. But while I honed my technical skills there, my heart was always drawn to crafting my own sounds—layering analog electronics, weaving ambient textures, and exploring how music could truly heal.
Over time, yoga, meditation, and minimalism became part of my life, and I realized how deeply sound connected to those practices. Flamingo Riot became my way to share that connection—through immersive music, sound healing journeys, and art that inspires you to slow down and listen deeply.
