Fletcher Kaufman - House of Glass Dolls (2011)



/Alt-folk, DIY, Lo-fi, Anti-folk, Electronic, Singer-songwriter/

Comment: Fletcher Kaufman is a singer-songwriter from USA and House of Glass Dolls is his debut album (in two versions). By listening and concluding it I can admit that Kaufman`s sound can be considered as one of those ones being part of DIY/anti-folk culture /CLLCT, for instance). Bare, rough guitar strums are accompanied with simple, barking cadences and at times female vocals in the background. On the other side, West Chron has strong electronic appeal with autotuned vocals, Grasping Love used to exploit Jewish motives. You can compare his sound with the oeuvres by Adrian Aardvark, and tinyfolk.
