Synopsis

Album Description
"A daydream wrapped up in an existential crisis wrapped up in the perfect summer melody." -- SF Chronicle "A marriage of sour memories and sunny melodies." -- RollingStone.com "The best one-man-and-guitar performer there is." -- Erland Øye, Kings of Convenience "Unguarded snatches of pop bliss, bald-faced, tender, and delivered winningly by Davenport." -- SF Bay Guardian You may have seen West Coast rock institution Bart Davenport fronting Quannum Records electro future-funk trio called Honeycut, or heard their song "Exodus Honey" in a recent iMac ad. Davenport is a singer-songwriter troubadour who wears his passionate love of West Coast pop on his sleeve. His songs have captivated audiences worldwide for years, dating back to his time as a front man for Oakland garage/ blues combo The Loved Ones. On Palaces, his fourth solo album and third for Oakland indie Antenna Farm, Davenport collaborates with kindred spirit Kelley Stoltz to deliver a work befitting an artist who has assimilated the influences of a lifetime's worth of music-making. The album also features stellar contributions from some of the Bay Area's top musicians, including Stoltz, Angelina Moysov (Persephone's Bees), and Tony Sevener & Hervé Salters (Honeycut). Drawing from Brit folk, bossa nova, and even a touch of Philly soul, Davenport's rich, nuanced vocals capture a cohesive fusion of traditional and indie pop, with lyrics that sparkle with plainspoken poetry and offer telling insights into the minds and hearts of his subjects.
