A 'spokesperson' for The Velvet Sundown that gave a statement to Rolling Stone earlier this week has now revealed that he's not affiliated with group

The AI band The Velvet Sundown, who currently have over 900,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, have officially admitted - in a new revision to their Spotify bio - what was obvious to experts and non-experts alike: their music is, in fact, AI-generated.

Original story follows: Dust on the Wind, Drift Beyond the Flame, and End the Pain, are all songs by the hot new band The Velvet Sundown, who are blowing up on Spotify with over 470,000 monthly listeners. There’s only one problem. It doesn’t look like the band actually exists, and the music appears to have been created by AI.
