mypilotis (pronounced: “my-pilloh-TEA”, one-word, stylized in all lowercase) is a San Antonio-based indie project and alias of multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and self-proclaimed “homemade producer”, Chesca Umeno, blending DIY charm with catchy melodies, addictive hooks, and thoughtful songwriting, crafted with love at home in a small room, played with electric energy, and shared with awkward charm. In the studio, mypilotis consists of solely Chesca who writes, records, and plays all of the parts and instruments. On tour and during live performances, mypilotis is supported by close friends and fellow musicians – Joey Gonzalez on lead guitar, Edgar Betancourt on drums, Sophie Kurihara bass, and JJ Herron on keys. mypilotis takes inspiration from artists such as Dayglow, Ginger Root, Boy Pablo, Mini Trees, and ATARASHII GAKKO! where the artist has grown from intimate DIY home recordings to a must-see high-energy live act.
