Art Lord & the Self-Portraits was an American synthpop band in Greenville, North Carolina, composed of Gerrit Welmers (keyboards), William Cashion (bass, acoustic and electric guitars), and Samuel T. Herring (lyrics and vocals), Adam Beeby (rhythmic keyboard) and Kymia Nawabi (percussion and backing vocals). Created originally as a performance piece criticizing pretentiousness in the artistic world, when it disbanded in late 2005, its remaining members went on to form the synth-pop band Future Islands.
