JOHN VAN DEUSEN

John Van Deusen seeks to holistically examine the human heart, starting with his own. Shifting between the quiet, rough-edged intimacies of acoustic bedroom pop and the glimmering, visceral heights of arena rock, (I Am) Origami Pt. 4 - Marathon Daze illuminates the darkness and divinity that coexist in a life. Marathon Daze is John Van Deusen’s single-most encompassing artistic statement, concluding the (I Am) Origami series by bringing it full circle. It’s a confession and a prayer that recognizes that brokenness is innate but that restoration is also near at hand. It’s a balancing act, but one that ultimately tilts towards hope. (I Am) Origami Pt. 4 - Marathon Daze releases on June 3rd, 2022 via Knw-Yr-Own Records. Recorded at various locations in Anacortes, Washington, it was co-produced with Jonathan Keane and mixed and mastered by Nich Wilbur (LAKE, Angel Olsen, Stephen Steinbrink) at The Unknown. John Van Deusen currently resides in his hometown of Anacortes with his wife and son.
