Conor O’Brien, who records as Villagers, explores faith, spirituality, technology, and our increasingly complicated relationship with the digital world on his fourth album, The Art of Pretending to Swim.
Combining electronic beats and synthesizers with guitars, piano, and some wonderful vocal harmonies, O’Brien steps into some new territory. There are elements of folk, electronic music, soul, and even gospel throughout the album, but it all comes together beautifully.
He’s one of my favorite artists, and The Art of Pretending to Swim does not disappoint.
