Kevin Greenspon
Owner of Bridgetown Records, Kevin Greenspon is a Southern California based musician whose construction of sound is something to cherish live and on his unique albums. Utilizing texture over technique, he creates landscapes of tones that cover the entire spectrum of human emotions and in the most subtle and honest of ways. Where many musicians who create ambient and texture based music look for extremes, Kevin Greenspon reaches for areas of sound that are more common place to the everyday pace of the lives we experience that is in a middle ground where as he mentions, “things just are”.
Big Waves of Pretty
On the “Jessica Shepard EP” music swells all over the place, crazy time signatures, kissing sounds, screaming, buzzing guitars, surf vibes, mixed with a feeling of partying by yourself being uncontrollably comfortable with yourself. Most of the tracks feel like they have a story behind them but that story isn’t obviously detectable.
