Artisan Loyalist is the electronic side project of Rob Batke from Faunts. While still in its infancy as a live band, the last couple of years of writing and recording have shaped a unique sound. Blending ambient keyboards, meticulous drum programming, and carefully crafted song structures, the result is danceable and driving, yet reflective and dynamic songs that choose to take their time to unfold. The music showcases a sound that takes a cue from the sprawling and expansive timbre of Faunts, and blends it with a love of electronic dance music.

The debut album, Campaign, is in late stages of completion and will see a release date later in the year. With Batke on keyboards, guitar and vocals, Artisan Loyalist also features Jaycie Jayce (Shout Out Out Out Out) on keyboards and bass, and Nathan Marshall on drums.
