i want more music like final fantasy.
I'm aware of andrew bird but what other amazing volinist type singer/songwritery people are there. I've just got into final fantasy in a massive way and can't stop listening to him.
I'll listen to everything everyone suggests.thankyou!
John Cale
Just get 'Paris 1919'. It's like Final Fantasy but recorded 30 years earlier - and it's better.
what
john cale albums should i get then. there needs to be lots of violin.
'Paris 1919' is an album and a song
the song itself is almost all strings. The album varies from lots of guitar parts and strings as backing. Either way, it's ace.
that's ace. thankyou!
more needed though.
I had his first album
on whilst on the train this afternoon and I just couldn't stop grinning...
bump.
I'm off to manchester now so a few new names by the time I get back would be most welcome.
Anni Rossi
although she plays viola and not violin

Jens Lekman
Maple Leaves, for example
Although no one is ~quite~ like Final Fantasy...
the pizzicatto bit on Alice Wading by the Dirty Three
really reminds me of Final Fantasy
ian cooke
very unknown now, but this will surely change. www.myspace.com/iancooke uses a cello and a loop pedal, very very nice
arthur russel
uses a cello, he was on that tmobile advert, he's lovely
