"Sünde, Tod, Mord, Hölle und Erlösung sind auch weiterhin die zentralen Themen beim selbsternannten Keller-Gospel von Dad Horse Ottn. Sparsam instrumentiert mit Banjo und seinen Füßen pendelt er zwischen Tradition und Augenzwinkern und holt die Appalachen wie nebenbei in die europäischen Clubs, als würden sie genau da hingehören." (Ox-Fanzine #90)






ELECTRIC GATES OF HEAVEN (7" vinyl) 2009

GATES OF HEAVEN (VINYL VERSION) - THE MOONSHINER - I'M NOT HERE ANYMORE - recorded and mixed at Neidmeer Studios by Timo Warkus, mastered by C.Matysiak at EckeLoyd / (P) off label records, GERMANY 2009 / Artwork & Grafik: Vicious Vroni

"In the weird and wonderful world of music, there walks a man with a banjo called Dad Horse Ottn. The path he walks heads towards righteousness and on this vinyl single he alters his step with the use of an electric guitar. / "Gates of Heaven" is no stranger to my ears but here the anguished electric guitar intertwines with those fractured vocals to further add to its oddball charm. Sure, it's all very minimalistic but in a way that Johnny Cash would have approved of. / "The Moonshiner" dances likes some gypsy polka making it more Balkans than Tennessee. It's an ode to drinking and clouds over the horizon and being the perennial loser in love (but there's always the drink in the end). / That takes us nicely into "I'm Not Here Anymore" which, powered by some rollicking fuzz guitar, bounces about the room like some acid powered throwback to Buck Owens. / These three songs are just about as far as you can get from corporate sensibilities and, let's be honest, they are none the worse for all that. Time for another whiskey! This release is a limited edition of 500, by the way." (Bluesbunny)






TOO CLOSE TO HEAVEN (CD-album)2008

1. THROUGH THE HOLE - 2. GATES OF HEAVEN - 3. FALLING - 4. LORD MUST FIX MY SOUL - 5. SCHWARZ GRUEN WEISS - 6. WERE U THERE (in Bookholzberg) - 7. FIND MY BODY DOWN - 8. DRIED OUT RIVER - 9. AWAY - 10. REACH OUT YOUR HAND - 11. TOO CLOSE TO HEAVEN - recorded and mixed at Hoerwerk Recordingstudio by Andree Klose / (P) Devil's Ruin Records, USA 2008 / Artwork: Agnieska Ledochowska

"Primitive, crazed but surprisingly powerful spiritual blues
Dad Horse Ottn is the slightly touched, more primitive country cousin of David Eugene Edwards. He plays (using the word in its broadest sense) banjo and kazoo and sings twisted gothic country with something of a religious bent. But, and it’s an important but, he has a sense of humour, evidenced on “Lord Must Fix My Soul”, the third cousin of Warren Zevon’s “Excitable Boy” and the laconic narrator of “Find My Body Down.” Elsewhere the redemption of “Through the Hole” contrasts with his bleak take on “Were You There (When They Crucified my Lord”). Outsider music at its most extreme, this German band could teach its Americana musical cousins a thing or three about dark and dirty music." (Americana-UK)
