|| The Deli SF ||"The Three Potato 4 is the solo effort of Ryan Kittleman. Crafting and building songs in his San Francisco apartment for the last nine months, Ryan has compiled an engaging and personal record, "Album Savant.” The instrumentation is adventurous, the lush cello arrangements of George Chavez provide a bed for the Casio keyboards, dollar store toys, and found instruments to accompany the more conventional instruments: guitar, vocals, and drum machines. At the core of the songs you’ll find Ryan’s voice, sweet and endearing it acts as a gentle guide from beginning to end. "Album Savant” is, at its most basic level, a solid avant-pop record. The melodies are catchy, the songs are quirky, and the arrangements are creative. But at times there is much more to this album. Songs such as "Sometimes She Said” and "Victory” transcend their humble bedroom roots, making the details of the "found” instrumentation and Casio keyboards less important and letting the songs exist on their own as really great pop music. "Album Savant” by The Three Potato 4 is out now on Series Two Records.-Glenn Jackson”
