Brad Oberhofer

 
Oberhofer - Demo

Starting off as an intern at Matador and also a student at NYU, Brad Oberhofer decided to share the demo of his music to some higher ups at Matador.  After listening to it, they knew right away that they had an amazing talent working in their office.

Brad Oberhofer was a one man band when he started creating music, saying that he would grab musicians from other bands to fill in whenever he performed live, whether that was within the bursting Brooklyn Indie rock scene or back at his native grounds of Tacoma, WA.  But creating and playing music alone doesn't take away from the complexity and fullness of Oberhofer's sound.  He takes some of the best traits from already well known bands and makes them his own.  There definitely a feeling of MGMT with his dance beats as well as connection to Wavves with his use of distortion on his voice.  Oberhofer is able to take all of these sound bits and yet his sound still sounds unique.  Check him out for yourself and hope that he does a tour of the country sometime soon and plays in Madison.
