For Peter Broderick, Portland's violin and piano-obsessed sound-scaper, 2007 was a landmark year. A developing MySpace friendship with Danish post-pop quintet Efterklang drew him from his Oregon home to the band's Scandinavian base in Denmark. Everything suddenly changed.
Swapping his beloved piano and violin for tenderly plucked guitars and delicate percussion, Broderick entered the studio and drenched his sound in the layered vocals that lay at the heart of his beguiling new record Home. Fans of that other Portland songsmith M.Ward - a man who Broderick has worked with in the past - take note.
Peter is set to bring his celestial sounds to venues across Europe throughout November and December.
A selection of his enchanting songs can be heard by clicking below:
