Mean Sea Level - April 28th, 2016

from Radio One Chicago Hosted by Radio One Chicago

This week we talk to Brett of Mean Sea Level. We discuss the difference between the art of an album vs the music of a live show. He speaks to us about how his new life as a father influences how he approaches and produces his music. Mean Sea Level weaves one-man eternal tropicalian fantasy recordings, at one glance gently fingerpicked and introspective, and alternately swallowing the heaviness of the universe in intricate bumping gulps. Mean Sea Level is the recording project of Brett Barton, Chicago-based singer, composer and engineer. This side project is a vehicle for reflection and exploration, for discovering new arrangements and sound combinations. Live, Mean Sea Level is joined by Don Ogilvie on drums (Pedal Steel Transmission, Stick Season) and Gary Pyskacek on upright bass (Pedal Steel Transmission, The Part Five).
