The Daydreamers/David Pollack/Oliver Ford

Oliver Ford makes music that gets stuck in your head--not just the melody, but the images and the feeling too. The 24 year old from New York City is a songwriter and performer of uncommon depth and range; his songs are cinematic in scope, reflecting an expansive singular vision akin to Brian Wilson, Van Morrison or Kurt Cobain. His number one fan is his mother. He doesn't take requests. He doesn't know any songs. Not even his own.

Where it is virtually impossible for a musical act not to get pigeon-holed as a cross between (place your favorite band and/or performer here) meets (place your next favorite here) The Daydreamers, a dynamic duo, featuring twin brothers Aaron and Wyatt Mones, seem to defy this age-old trap.  With their classical songwriting, hauntingly edgy melodies, beautiful harmonies and musicianship, The Daydreamers pull a sleight of hand right when one is about to classify them. Born and raised in Woodstock, N.Y., the Mones brothers are the spawn of all the music genres that have taken root in that fabled area. Drawing influence from The Everly Brothers, Fleet Foxes, and Wilco, Comparisons will be made with The Daydreamers.  Its inevitable. But not here. Suffice to say they are a unique blend of talent and stage appeal, starting to separate themselves from the pack.

Taking influence from Death Cab For Cutie, early Weezer and Jimmy Eat World Indie Pop Singer/Songwriter David Pollack's writing is all about beauty, simplicity and the melodic hook in just the right place. lt's a culmination of his years spent busking on the streets and in the parks of New York City, and whether he's playing solo or with his backing band, his music will stay with you long after the performance.
