Critical Owen Pallett

By Laura Leebove

Formerly known as the one-man-band Final Fantasy, Owen Pallett has released three LPs of his own, starting with 2005’s Has A Good Home. And while he has an unbeatable brand of melodic orchestral pop, the Canadian wunderkind has also found plenty of work behind the scenes as one of indie music’s most sought-after arrangers and composers.
