“Liam Singer was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. As a fourteen year old began recording songs on accordion, synthesizer and the theremin. He studied composition at Kenyon College in Ohio, where the harpsichord was his main instrument, and after returning to Portland he recorded his first album “The Empty Heart of the Chameleon”. Singer then settled in San Francisco with Scott Solter and recorded his second album “Our Secret Lies Beneath The Creek”. After moving to New York, Liam Singer, published in 2010, the album “Dislocatia” through Australian label Hidden Shoal Recordings. In July of this year he released his fourth LP ‘Arc Iris “(Hidden Shoal Recordings). By the way, I recommend a look at the comprehensive catalog of the independent publishing house in Perth, which offers the free download compilation of music artists gathered around the label.
Musically, “Arc Iris” oscillates between experimental vision of pop music and contemporary variant of post-Romantic classical music, with influences of lo-fi aesthetics. Certainly “Arc Iris” will appeal to lovers of the Icelandic Bedroom Community artists. The way he sings Liam Singer and the color of his voice remind me on one hand of the vocals of Win Butler (Arcade Fire), and on the other – he has the manner of David Tibet (Current 93).
Singer’s complex arrangements evidently approach it to the album “The Soft Bulletin” by The Flaming Lips and the work of Sufjan Stevens, who is not worthy of such compositions featured in the album “Arc Iris”.”
