Alastair Ottesen is a disciple of classic pop and folk such as The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Neil Young and Bob Dylan as well as a fan of their musical descendants such as Elliott Smith and Radiohead. He crafts delicate vocal harmonies and counter-melodies and sets them atop simple piano and guitar chords. His toy piano, harmonium, and sparse arrangements are reminders that at the heart of great pop music lies melody, poetry, and steadfast attention for the songs.
