New Old Friends

Under the leadership of singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Shane Tutmarc, Dolour is proving that pop and indie rock can peacefully co-exist. Dolour is the vehicle through which Tutmarc drives his honest and inventive music, delicately layered with intricate instrumentation and clever arrangements. Seattle Times calls Tutmarc's work "a not-to-be-missed collection of indiepop." A standout among the many Seattle artists Tutmarc brings a comforting familiarity to the mix of melodies and hooks that give a respectful nod to both pop icons and contemporaries alike.
