New York-based singer\/songwriter Elliot Moss<\/strong> makes down-tempo\u00a0electronic pop songs which he primarily records and mixes by himself. His minimal arrangements feature subtle production tricks, sometimes venturing into more active beat patterns, and occasionally featuring lightly distorted guitar. His lyrics often touch on themes of darkness and loss, and his vocals have earned comparisons to Justin Vernon, James Blake, and Thom Yorke<\/em>. His self-produced debut album ‘Highspeeds’ was initially released in 2014 on independent label Bad Future, but re-released the following year by American label Grand Jury, Canadian label Dine Alone, and U.K. label Play It Again Sam. Elliot Moss<\/strong> initially played solo concerts, including performances at the CMJ and SXSW music festivals, but eventually assembled a five-piece band for live shows.<\/p>\n
