Far Caspian is the stage name used by singer-songwriter Joel Johnston, who creates a lush, calm and gentle kind of pop with dreamy undertones, hushed vocals and a bit of a sprawl that helps create a cinematic feel. There is a distinctive and relaxed tone to his music and often a dramatic flow. He likes to operate mostly at a comfortable mid tempo range. His melodies are catchy without being earworms and tend to stay with the listener as mood setters. His production work is remarkable in the way it brings out the depth and subtlety in his otherwise understated presentation. There is also a little jangle on his guitar, which often stays half a step out of the spotlight and adds a nice texture to his music.
