Etiquette is the fourth album by Casiotone for the Painfully Alone. If it doesn't sound much like the previous albums by CFTPA, it's because he actually spent a little bit of money on this one. Owen Ashworth from San Francisco is one of the best songwriters working in independent music today, and his intimate character studies are finally getting the production they deserve. Instead of limiting the arrangements to battery powered electronics and the occasional contributions from friends, Ashworth has expanded his bedroom recording project into a small orchestra of pianos, organs, strings, flutes, pedal steel guitars, drums, drum machines, and synthesizers. He makes stylistic leaps between dark Euro synth pop, classic rock balladry, country-tinged techno, distorted 60's bubblegum pop, and stark piano bar jazz. Ashworth makes his Irish debut with his pals The Dead Science playing support and back-up. We’re excited about this show as it also marks the return of hometown hero Goodtime John from a summer touring Canada and the United States.
