Faux Real

Faux Real is a Franco-American art pop duo formed by brothers Elliott and Virgile Arndt. Blurring the line between undeniable pop appeal and off-kilter experimentation, their project thrives on contradiction. Known for high-energy DIY performances featuring matching outfits, synchronized choreography, and explosive stage presence, they channel a strange hybrid of Iggy Pop and Eurodance boy bands. Balancing order and chaos, the visceral and the artificial, Faux Real embraces ambiguity—leaving audiences questioning what’s real and what’s faux.
