Downpilot

The Forecast

Downpilot is ostensibly the solo project of singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and recording/mix engineer Paul Hiraga. For the last four albums, Hiraga has recorded and mixed single-handedly, which has given his work a seasoned clarity, and his seventh album, The Forecast, is the boldest, most exquisitely crafted Downpilot album to date. A trip across multiple decades with influences subtly ranging from the melodic Laurel Canyon-esque ballads ("Balancer"), to Baroque and Sunshine Pop of the late 60s and 70s ("Strangers Hotel"), to 90s Britpop ("Red Desert"), all with a 21st-Century spin, its nothing less than an achievement that The Forecast hangs together so wonderfully as a cohesive body of work.
