Human Ottoman is quite the trio.
Utilizing a couple instruments not usually employed by the typical makeup of a band, the amalgamation of Human Ottoman’s vibraphone-cello-drum production caught our eye back in February of last year when we premiered their video for "YDKWH." Their vibrance even captured the attention of the bookers over at Treefort Music Fest, of which they played earlier this year and all of you voted as one of the best Portland acts there.
As for what they’ve got going on currently, Human Ottoman were on the bands selected to be featured at tonight’s Northwest Post-Rock Collective showcase. See their greatness, along with Volcanic Pinnacles, Long Hallways, A Collective Subconscious and Seattle’s You May Die In The Desert, later today at the Tonic Lounge.
