Balthazar – The Man Who Owns The Place

balthazar

Balthazar, a duo out of the UK, make their b3sci debut with the Leonard Cohen meets Dangermouse sound of “The Man Who Owns The Place”. The spaghetti western, heat of summer sweeping textures of the track’s production and arrangements provide a really sharp counterpoint for the Cohen/Gainsbourg/Zimmerman lane stylings of “The Who Owns The Place”s melodies. The band will be supporting Local Natives later this month on their European Tour, and you can sample the particulars (as well as the track) below.
