Our Violet Room surprised fans with a new release on Friday - "Oz"- a hauntingly tender, cinematic folk track that is perfect for the Halloween season we currently find ourselves in.
With his top songs reaching over 350K streams on Spotify and featured on Hulu, Amazon, Freeform, and Magnolia Picture Films, the Denver-based artist is quickly climbing the ranks of indie-folk musicians to watch for.
He has a few more releases planned for this month... "Waltz" releasing on 10/21, and "Bird Song" on 10/28 culminating in a new Halloween-themed EP on the same day.
Artist Bio:A deep love of movie scores and the composers that made them alongside an admiration and passion for folk music is the base of the music that Birch creates under the moniker Our Violet Room. An “indie singer-songwriter with a cinematic twist”, Birch got his musical start in 2018 by playing SoFar Sound shows - first in Denver but soon all over the world. A humble story of overcoming depression, working hard, and diving headfirst into his dream, Birch only has one goal…. to make thoughtful, well-made, emotional art that inspires his listeners and causes them to feel. His music has been compared to the likes of Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, and Coldplay for its lush atmosphere, emotional lyrics, and cinematic arrangements and has quickly launched his music career with two songs featured on FreeForm’s “Good Trouble” series and two songs featured in a Magnolia feature film. “Making movie scores has been a dream of mine and to look at each song as a little movie score has been a great way of creating,” says Birch. Thus far in his career, Birch has released two EPs - Our Violet Room and the live EP Loss and Death in Winter - alongside a handful of singles. Mixing folk and cinematic soundscapes seem to be working for the emerging artist as his songs have a combined 500,000 streams. “ I don’t go for cool or hip, I go for what moves me.” His debut album Not Where I Thought I’d Be is out now on all platforms.
