An underground alt country artist.
Like many of his favorite songwriters (John Hartford, Lucinda Williams, Jeff Tweedy), Izaak Opatz is an ungulate in life’s winter pasture, chewing on and metabolizing disappointment, heartbreak, and the other tough stuff into enjoyable musical carbohydrates. A compulsive metaphorager (and inveterate wordplayboy), Opatz breaks it all down with enzymes of wry humor, thoughtful simile and close observation - a therapeutic process of narrativizing his own life that, almost as a byproduct, turns out savory nuggets of literate, confessional pop.
Izaak Opatz plays alt-country and confessional pop, characterized by wry humor and thoughtful storytelling, often released through Mama Bird Recording Co.
Izaak Opatz is originally from Montana and is currently based in Los Angeles.
