Setting Sun
Melodic song oriented indie rock. Edgy, intelligent, soothing, rhythmically aggressive and melancholy in its most beautiful form, where there are still shards of hope.

Description
Setting Sun is what the name implies; melancholy, thoughtful, and classic. Drawing on the memories and melodies of some of the best songwriters of our time, Setting Sun creates it's own niche and sound without completely alienating the mainstream. Briefly described as melodic song oriented indie rock, the music is edgy, intelligent, soothing, rhythmically aggressive and melancholy in its most beautiful form, where there are still shards of hope.

Salt Lake City Weekly
Setting Sun (aka Los Angeles singer-songwriter Gary Levitt) has racked up many an Elliott Smith comparison over the past two years, not to mention David Bowie and Kurt Cobain-who could really complain about that? Levitt's two albums, 2002's lo-fi Holed Up and the new higher-fi Math & Magic (SettingSun.cc), are loaded with dark left-field melodies and rainbow-flavored pop quirks far more endearing than annoying; it's usually one or the other with these self-produced solo multi instrumentalists operating under covert band names.

The Sun Also Sets -- Dinosaur Jr., Nirvana, Elliot Smith, Dumptruck ... all these influences and more can be heard in wondrous, living color on Setting Sun's Math and Magic (Young Love). The mastermind behind the amazing mish mash here is Gary Levitt, who played all the instruments on most of the record, but tours with a three-piece band. If you're an Elliot Smith fan, you'll do well to spend tonight at the Atomic Cantina beginning at 9 p.m.
