Artist Bio
John Vanderslice is an American musician and songwriter signed to the Dead Oceans record label (Tallest Man On Earth, Akron/Family, Phosphorescent etc). Touring Ireland for the first time in support of his most recent album White Wilderness, he is influenced by film and is a fan of David Lynch, whose work is referenced in his song 'Promising Actress'. His declared musical influences are diverse, ranging from Neutral Milk Hotel to Public Enemy.
He has incorporated the poetry of William Blake, Percy Shelley, Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Lowell into his music. In addition, Vanderslice is a prolific amateur photographer, has helped produce albums by Spoon and The Mountain Goats and also owns the Tiny Telephone recording studio in San Francisco.
Established in 1997, the studio was initially used as a rehearsal space before being developed as a full-time, all-analog recording studio. Bands who have recorded in the studio include Death Cab for Cutie, Okkervil River, Deerhoof and Spoon.
