Static Brother David O’Dowda- formerly the front man for alt-folk band Table, and keyboard player with indie band Sizer Barker, O’Dowda now spends much of his time composing music to picture.
In the last year he has completed composing his first feature film starring Clarke Peters (The Wire) and Alison Doody(Indiana Jones) and his music is regularly used on TV promos worldwide - the most notable this year being trailers for Homelands and The Affair.
The theme of David’s new EP ‘The World Retreats’ is loosely based around the idea of people giving up on humanity and blindly taking a step back from anything that troubles their daily lives.
Wanting the writing and recording process to be fresher and more organic for this EP, he wrote the songs in a week, converted his house into a studio and invited good friends to come and join him for a barbeque, drinks and recording session for three days.
Back with his old label Static Caravan for the release of this diaphanous audio jewel, a 5 track ep in hand assembled and numbered ltd edition CD EP.
