Description
“The Dan Tedesco record is intense! The vibe is very much along the lines of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska.”
~ Mark Simmet, Iowa Public Radio, StudioOne
Dan Tedesco may be known as a folksy singer-songwriter, but now he’s also his own producer. Tedesco recorded his recently released, self-titled fourth album in his Iowa home, using his iPad’s on-board condenser mike to capture his songs live quickly. The result is an album stripped of studio-recording atmosphere, and focused on a raw sound that reflects Tedesco’s live performances. “I wanted it to be very direct, and I wanted it to be a very transparent performance,” he said, speaking by phone. “I wanted it to be as if I was almost next to you on a couch playing those songs, because they’re very intimate.” Minimalist rhythmic guitar, melodies that swoop, soar, and linger, and lyrics saturated with metaphor render a complex product despite Tedesco’s simple recording techniques.
