Oliver Marson’s music is full of surprises. What starts off as a formulaic pop song can often veer off into something completely different half way through. Drawing influence from an eclectic range of artists and fields, Marson wants to pull the rug from underneath the listener’s to keep them guessing and constantly on their toes. He does this within the confines of a four minute pop song, balancing experimentalism with pop sensibilities. Much like his influences of the past like Byran Ferry, David Bowie and Serge Gainsbourg, he has the ability to provoke, haunt and lift in one song. In Marson, we have a shadowy new wave rocker for the modern age.
