Pollard is best known as the inventive arranger behind the soul and indie-rock performers -- standouts from Matthew E. White to Natalie Prass -- on Richmond’s distinctive Spacebomb label.
For his own first solo album, he took a detour from his usual string and horn sweetenings. Antiphone is a beautifully realized classical chamber music disc, mostly four-string quintet, a moody mélange of cello and violin that simmers and stimulates. “I don’t see it as a record like any other Spacebomb has done,” the 35-year-old Chesapeake native says. “It’s all about making a statement, and trying not to lose too much money.”
