Multi instrumentalist, bedroom producer, singer songwriter & “wunderkind” Dan Oke usually keeps himself pretty busy. If you haven’t caught Dan playing a couple nights a week within Melbourne’s vast independent music community, he’s locked away writing and recording music under the solo moniker JARROW. In the beginning it was nothing more than just a beat-up old acoustic & a pirated copy of Ableton Live. Ten years on and he’s dropped 3 full length LPs, multiple east-coast tours, huge international supports opening for Car Seat Headrest & The Wombats, a festival slot at Splendour In The Grass and critical acclaim via publications Rolling Stone, Noisey, Beat Magazine, Casual Band Blogger & more.
Every note you hear on a Jarrow song is written and performed by Dan himself (with the occasional guest feature on sax by his dad). The production is dense yet simple with elements of garage punk, indie pop, folk, disco & even some ambient noise. You never quite know what to expect with unusual song structures & experimental production choices making each tune an exciting listen. Lyrically, Dan stays tongue in cheek as his self-induced anxiety and daily observations get their own backing track. Whether it’s about lost love, broken-down cars, memes, dreams or regrets - it’s somehow equally celebratory & deprecating all in the same beat. You’ll hit the repeat button every single time ready for seconds.
