Odetta Hartman (New York, NY) beautiful vocals and banjo laden tracks create an original sound from this up and coming artist.
Bio: << Odetta Hartman >> is a young woman keeping the spirit of Old New York alive. With a heart-stopping voice and wide-ranging instrumental talent – she carries cowboy soul into a new era where country can clash with computers, and bluegrass isn’t afraid of bass.
With her first strictly solo record, 222 — an experimental, bedroom-produced hybrid of folk, musique concrète and psychedelia — Odetta Hartman and her partner, sound artist and producer Jack Inslee, have created something completely original and unsettling: badass banjos, detuned violins, superstitious stories and eerie soundscapes all give backing to beautiful vocal stylings that range from sensual to spooky.
<< 222 >> presents itself as a post-modern audio novella: its 22 – minute running time makes it as concise as your favorite Netflix episode, and its eclectic edge is sure to leave your head spinning by the time you’re through. In addition to writing all of the songs, Odetta sings, plays banjo, violin and guitar and incorporates samples from her own field recordings to create a truly idiosyncratic world of sound. A companion remix EP will be released in collaboration with Full Service Party, featuring unique reinterpretations of each track from some of the finest talents in the electronic music world.
