Rodrigo Lopresti, also known as The Hermitt, is an American musician, rapper, and songwriter from Brooklyn, New York, United States. His first commercial album was released in 2003. [1]
Rodrigo Lopresti built a recording studio in a tiny windowless closet of a Brooklyn apartment he shared with Francis Benhamou. Lopresti recorded, arranged and mastered 14 songs into a Korg digital 8-track device. In 2003, "& The Story of The Insects" was born. He released the album under Devious Semantics, a record label he co-founded with Kevin Brady and Tyler Fenio.
Lopresti played most of the instruments on the album and designed the cover artwork. Ryan Donowho played drums on "& Calistos Curse." and Patrick Galligan on “I-Mold”, “A Pointless Ride”, “The Man Behind The Mask”, and “El Rostro Impenetrable”.
Gus Van Sant featured two songs, "Seen as None," and "Pointless Ride," on the soundtrack for his 2005 movie " Last Days." The Hermitt band, featuring Kevin Brady on bass and Patrick Galligan on drums, was the band playing at a bar [2] in the Last Days movie. [3]
The band has not performed live since 2008.
