Geo Aghinea (b. 2001, Romania) is a London-based experimental vocalist and sound designer who bridges their Romanian roots with microtonal textures and the pulse of Eastern Europe’s underground queer scene.
Growing up with the Doinas of their grandmother, Geo developed a hauntingly distinct & ornamental vocal style that forms the core of their live vocal-scapes. Through modular synth explorations, they shape sound to bend like their voice.
Geo also brings a unique perspective to sound itself. As a musician with severe hearing loss, their reliance on hearing aids isn’t a limitation but a tool: reshaping their understanding of frequencies and texture.
Notable recognitions include: Oram Award (2023) for innovation in sound & music, Sound of the Year Awards x Accidental Records (2024), Electronic Music Award x DJ Mag (2024).
In 2025, Geo performed alongside Tom Odell at Roundhouse’s main venue and appeared as a guest for Instagram x Fred Again ‘Ask It Anyway…’.
