Son Of Stan
Divorce Pop
Produced by Adam Lasus (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Yo La Tengo), Divorce Pop is the full-length debut of Son of Stan, the solo vehicle of songwriter Jordan Richardson (former drummer for Ben Harper and Ringo Starr). Divorce Pop, written and performed entirely by Richardson, wraps wry lyricism in psychedelic hooks and the airtight grooves of vintage synth-rock, creating a sound thats both nostalgic and futuristic. The first single Corsica, premiered in September on MTV. Divorce Pops sound draws from the darker side of 80s pop (Joe Jackson, Phil Collins...as well as the stonier, soulful, awkward pop swagger of modern artists...a la Twin Shadow, Blood Orange, etc). According to Emmy-nominated filmmaker Daniel Stessen, Divorce Pop is "like art-school Huey Lewis".
