Oliver Marson Silent Heaven ( Official Video)

Having teamed up with Jorge Elbrecht (Kirin J Callinan, Ariel Pink) and Joshua Rumble (Black Country New Road) to achieve this sound on his upcoming album and singles. Oliver Marson blends music from the 60s, 70s and 80s to create a catchy baroque pop sound. This is ludicrous music for ludicrous times and satire for life in late capitalism. Inspired by the sounds of John Maus and Drab Majesty, his lyrics take more from contemporary rap artists like Danny Brown than the current zeitgeist of guitar bands, because of their provocative nature. He also draws inspiration from the dark themes and topics explored by Scott Walker, Serge Gainsbourg and Nick Cave. The tracks themselves feature Christina Lopez on drums (Lava la rue, Empathy Test), Charles Cave on bass (White Lies) and with some vocals from For Breakfast lead vocalist, Maya Harrisson.
