*Chris Schlarb* is a musician, composer and producer based in Long Beach,
California. His newest album, Psychic Temple II, is a celebration of the
auteur as cult leader and includes surprising reinventions of work by Frank
Zappa, Brian Wilson, Joe Jackson. The album expands his trademark
atmospherics into the realm of pop songcraft. Spin Magazine said the album
is “beautiful and almost dangerously relaxed,” while National Public Radio
said, “In its wordless pastoral journey, Psychic Temple is boundary-less.”

His debut solo album, Twilight & Ghost Stories, was critically hailed as
both, “40 minutes of avant-garde bliss” by the New York Observer and as “a
monumental achievement” by FFWD Weekly. His following release, Interoceans,
with experimental jazz duo I Heart Lung, was chosen by NPR as one of the
Top 5 Jazz albums of the year in 2008.

“Schlarb can write a jazz tune with the best of them, but on an album that
ostensibly crosses boundaries separating jazz, chamber and indie music, his
restless creativity has no choice but to continuously seek new worlds.” –
Lars Gotrich, National Public Radio
