Dream Pop from LTB

Annapolis-based alternative pop artist LTB has been steadily winning over fans and tastemakers alike with his immersive soundscapes and captivating vibrato vocals. His compositions are deeply rooted in emotion, incorporating electronic percussion and tinges of jazz influences while blurring the lines between pop and R&B.

Having performed to both sold-out crowds and intimate shows in venues across Annapolis and Baltimore, LTB possesses a commanding stage presence. His journey in music has been a promising one, and he’s poised to continue his ascent as he relocates to Nashville to further his career.

Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of artists including The Weeknd, James Blake, Joji, Hozier and Steve Lacy, LTB’s sound is at once accessible for any music fan, yet still offers something entirely new. His latest release, “Slow Down,” showcases his vocal prowess as well as his knack for fusing retro sonic charm with modern flair.

“Slow Down” follows the success of his recent single “Rewind,” and it’s another shining example of his shimmering dream pop sound. The track opens with airy synth tones that feel like a gentle breeze on a warm summer day as distant vocal flourishes add to the atmosphere. As the song progresses, it slowly builds an enthralling atmosphere, completely wrapping you in its alluring sound.

A lightly punching electronic beat makes its entrance, providing a rhythmic backbone for the track. LTB’s vocals, delicate and stretching, weave engaging melodic leads into the sonic tapestry, imbuing the song with a subtle alternative R&B vibe. The juxtaposition of his ethereal voice against the deeper bass tones creates a truly mesmerising full sound.

The music pulses gently, like a heartbeat, as LTB’s voice soars above it. His delivery is at once intimate and ethereal, delivering poignant lyricism. It’s a song that transports you to another place, where time slows down and you’re suspended in an enchanting dreamscape. As he continues to go from strength to strength, we can’t wait to see what his new Nashville-based chapter will unveil.
