About this playlist
David Fonseca's sensuous, literate alternative rock draws from many sources. Art pop combo Roxy Music clearly inspire with their wry humour and off-kilter melodies, while David Bowie's linguistic cut-ups inform a method of writing emotionally complex tunes. Meanwhile, Tim Buckley's lyrical love letters show that Fonseca isn't the only one who can sing evocatively about impossibly doomed romance.
