Oberhofer Strikes with First Track off Debut Lp [free Mp3]

HEART – Oberhofer

Brooklyn-via-Washington musician Brad Oberhofer is finally releasing his first full-legth album, Time Capsules II, this March 27 via Glassnote Records (Phoenix, Mumford & Sons, Givers). Oberhofer’s (@oberhofermusic) stellar 2009 debut EP was extremely well received, garnering the musician some well deserved attention from practically every blog in existence, including ours (listen to some of the release here). Unlike that youthful debut, Time Capsules II looks to be the work of a more mature songwriter who knows which of his quirks to hold tightly to. Last week, Oberhofer released the first track from Time Capsules II, “HEART”, a pop rock ballad that focuses on love lost. Oberhofer is heading on tour this March with stops along most of the East and West coasts, and for the first time, Brad and his band will be playing the wild desert festival known as Coachella.
