About

Final Fantasy is Owen Pallett, a violinist and singer from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. On September 18th 2006, Final Fantasy won the inaugural Polaris Music Prize for the best Canadian album (based solely on artistic merit). As Final Fantasy, Pallett has been noted for his live performances, wherein he plays the violin into a sampler controlled by foot pedals, which then loops back one or more of the previously played musical phrases as he plays additional parts simultaneously. He has also performed with more traditional string quartets as backing musicians.
In February of 2005, his debut album, Final Fantasy Has A Good Home, was released by the recording club Blocks (sometimes referred to as ‘BlocksBlocksBlocks'), a cooperative, Toronto-based record label of which he is a member. A second album is entitled "He Poos Clouds", and inspiration for the songs are based on the eight schools of magic used for Dungeons & Dragons and how they relate to modern times.

    Excellent, as always. Owen is a prime example of the level of professionalism and musicianship to which all bands and musicians should aspire...
