After making fuzzed-out pop gems with indie rock outfit Jackpot, Tiger, and penning jingles for cereal commercials, Kahn eventually started to release music under his own name. While working as a writer and producer at Frisbie Studios in NYC, he collaborated with artists such as Benji Hughes and Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire, among others, contributing as a studio musician and co-writer. Kahn’s latest release, “The Marble Jar”, combines furry guitars, spidery vocals, and dry wit to create soft, tender songs that both comfort and disturb. After the unexpected death of his father and two cross-country moves, Kahn returned home to redraw the map of an unrecognizable life. Oscillating between the bright jangle-pop of 1991 and the faint intimations of Elliott Smith, Kahn explores the raw pain of grief, the uncomfortable realities of close relationships, and the crisis of belonging. While the front half of the record leans into the comic absurdity of ordinary life, the back half plays like a string of adult lullabies about loss.
