Summary
Paul Otteson’s music is like a message in a bottle that was tossed in a loch west of Glasgow, that drifted along the jet stream to the New World.
It stopped in Brooklyn’s folk revival scene in the early aughts to pick up a pleasant spacey jangly sound that eschews the stomp clap hey of the early teens and it made its way via the fur trade up to the waters of the Gitche Gumme and down to the land of Dejope.
Today, on Taste the Music, Paul Otteson talks about the passions that made his journey in songwriting worth it - and they weren’t always musical in nature. He also tells us about the reckoning that comes with comparing yourself to others, and about the comfort that can follow.
Today's episode was produced, written and edited my me, Mark Griffin, and engineered by Aaron Scholz at WORT studios.
You can learn more about Paul Otteson and his band Faux Fawn at PaulOtteson.com or on Bandcamp.
