Oliver Pesch - Kid With The Dice

On Kid With The Dice, Pesch reveals a special talent for vivid storytelling, blurring notions of fiction and reality on a whim. As informed by legends like Paul Simon as he is with contemporary songwriters such as Blake Mills, each song feels like opening a door to a whole new scenery, skipping across the stomp-and-rollick of “That’ll Be It” and The Style Council-reminiscent “You Found A Lover” . “I always listen to songwriters looking for original ways of storytelling, whether through music or through lyrics. The arrangement has to tell its own story. I find it important that songs have a concept behind them that is well thought out.”
