Comment on Mojo ‘Best Album of 2010′ winner John Grant coming to Exeter Phoenix (news) by Musica Phenomena

Musica Phenomena — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 00:04:00 +0000

I’m a huge fan of The Czars from way back, having felt like no one knew of them then, even buying my discs on ebay straight from the bassist. John Grant’s voice has always been entrancing and beautiful to me, with hypnotizing and haunting lyrics. My favorite album, “Before….But Longer”, which swept me up into many repeat listens, I recommended to many friends over the years. John Grant’s voice is similar to, but better than, Brendan Perry of Dead Can Dance and Chris Isaak. I recently found myself craving to find out what he and The Czars were doing nowadays after hearing the absolutely amazing bands, Portrait Of David, and The White Birch (“Star Is Just A Sun”) who’s singer, Ola Fløttum also has a similar quality to his voice, though very different but extraordinary indie ambient music. All that brought me here. Just listened to the album on Spotify after reading this “Mojo Best Album of 2010″ post. Now, I’m going to go pick it up! Thanks!
