If you were not aware, Seth Timbs was once best known as the frontman of Spongebath Records own Fluid Ounces – a piano pop band that led to far too many Ben Folds comparisons just by virtue of the instruments involved. Since that time, he’s released a number of solo albums that continue along the path of heartfelt, lyrically clever, pop songs cut with just the right amount of self-deprecation and longing. He’s also managed to introduce a great number of additional instruments to ensure that the Folds comparisons cease; and rightfully so as Timbs is an excellent songwriter in his own right and doesn’t deserve the easy journalistic lumping.Â
