Gavin Castleton, What the Hell are You?

Posted on Thursday, March 18, 2010 by Tim Jessup

Gavin Castleton. I discovered him while listening to artists at the last SXSW. And I can't seem to figure this guy out. His latest album is love gone bad/zombie movie. His tweets are a continuing story: twitter/gavincastleton
His music is indefinable. I really don't know what to make of it. I like it. A lot. But what the hell is it? Not that music necessarily has to be defined in a genre, but, I really would like to know what the hell is going on.
His latest album, Home, is described as "an album about the process of healing from massive heartbreak. Written over the course of a two- year breakup, this 14-song narrative blurs the line between fact and fiction as it details the extreme highs and gut-wrenching lows of Castleton’s first bout with love, presented in the motif of a zombie film."

Here is one of the songs, “Coffeelocks” a "50’s doo-wop/dub pop of - a love at first sight introduction in the coffee shop"

I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks about it.
