soul-tinged chamber pop
Bio / Background
With much anticipation, Reuben Butchart releases his sophomore CD "Golden Boy." Co-produced with Noah Simon (Bill Frisell, Greta Gertler, Susan Tedeschi), Reuben's second full-length includes 12 new songs, including a duet with Antony of Antony & The Johnsons (Track 11).
Reuben Butchart (Boo-shárt) is a singer-songwriter whose clear and pure voice has garnered comparisons to Chet Baker and Stevie Wonder – by turns both soothingly delicate and triumphantly powerful. Blending together classic American pop and 70’s soul with today’s avant/indie influences, Reuben shapes the singer-songwriter form into a unique blend of soul-tinged chamber-pop.
Reuben’s sound creates a sweet sanctuary – a place for listeners to relax, reminisce, re-evaluate, and renew. From this world comes “Golden Boy,” Reuben's lushly orchestrated collection of alternative soul gems and mid-tempo art ballads that thematically harken back to his golden days by the golden gate in the golden state.
↓ more ↓Growing up in San Francisco, Reuben studied at alternative music schools with a variety of eclectic and masterful musicians including Tom Constanten, the original keyboardist for the Grateful Dead.
A recipient of the Martin Luther King Jr Scholarship, Reuben studied classical composition and arranging in New York, where he immersed himself in the colorful East Village spectacle of do-it-yourself oddities and legendary avant-garde performers.
He entered the downtown scene as the original pianist for Antony and the Johnsons, while completing his own debut album “Dusk.” An eclectic blend of electronic samples, R&B flourishes, and strings, “Dusk” received the 2003 Outmusic award for Outstanding Debut Recording.
