As the leader, brainchild, and sole consistent member of Adeline Hotel, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Dan Knishkowy approaches each new release as an opportunity to present a new (or modified) version of his stellar band. The new Adeline Hotel record, Watch the Sunflowers, draws on elements from previous releases but remains a fresh-sounding album with tons of great, beautifully arranged ideas.
Much like Destroyer‘s Dan Bejar, Knishkowy is a restless visionary who doesn’t seem comfortable placing his music in one particular genre for too long. Previous Adeline Hotel albums have explored low-key indie folk/pop (Solid Love), acoustic guitar instrumentals (Good Timing), and lush chamber pop (The Cherries Are Speaking).
