Stephen Bluhm
Stephen Bluhm presents the beautiful new orchestral pop album Out of the Nowhere Into the Here. Bluhm will sing and play piano & guitar, and will be joined by Meghan Mercier on cello, Jackson Spargur on violin, Scott Vorwald on clarinet & sax, and Erin Starr on flute.
While his self-titled 2017 debut was acclaimed as a synth-pop tour de force, Bluhm set the electronics aside and more deeply explored the modern and classic chamber pop sounds he’s long adored. Recorded in Hudson and Athens, New York, the album was recorded on Bluhm's piano and with many local orchestral players, including members of Bard's The Orchestra Now. The music is described by Bluhm “ten intimate but playful songs capturing the visceral feelings of autumn and winter, love and passion, and the suspicion (I’m not alone with) that there is something going on beyond our understanding.”

"Quietly and beautifully stunning. The kind of record that I can't listen to casually.” - The Magnetic Fields guitarist Anthony Kaczynski
"Like walking through a meadow." - Brian Dewan
“Utterly charming.” - Composer & pianist Tom Judson
‘Few artists in recent memory have captured the grace and serenity of the Hudson Valley’s calmer environs like Stephen Bluhm’ - Rock and Roll Globe
