country girl

Raised in New York and now based in Brooklyn, country girl was home-schooled as a teen and studied classical composition at Juilliard. There, sequestered away from contemporary music stylings, he was instead influenced by the lush textures of composers such as Maurice Ravel and Steve Reich. With time, his aesthetic interests shifted — and via a serious meditation regimen and what he cites as a bit of every day magic — he assumed the role of country girl. Synthesizing his classical upbringing with a studied appreciation for modern pop, country girl creates songs that explore those little moments of boundless glee, when your heart can't help but burst out of your chest.
