A pressure-cooked smorgasbord of diverse inspirations make up this genre-merging odyssey from the Ipswich-born Oklahoma-(via Germany & Greenland) resident. His broad palette of intoxicating sounds are right at home on the prestigious 4AD record label & have seen him touring with the likes of The National, Japanese Breakfast & Phoebe Bridgers. Whether he’s concocting a slow-burning funk-fuelled strut, blazing through riotous guitars, pumping out dancefloor beats, or engaging in quietly strummed contemplation, there’s an enlightened coherence gelling it all together. This is equal parts Strange’s own predilections and the pop credentials of uber producer, Jack Antonoff, providing an infectious sheen to ‘Horror’s dark and kaleidoscopic threads.Forget what The Doors said, you’ll remember the name “Bartees Strange”
