Owl City is Adam Young, a clean-cut Baptist boy from the Midwest who combines saccharine synth-pop with Ben Gibbard-esque soft, singable vocals. When sleep eluded Young, as he writes it often does, he’d creep down to his basement and record songs. His single “Hello Seattle” a psalm for the Puget Sound, earned him a call for a meeting with Universal Records in New York. Ocean Eyes went on to reach #2 on the Top Albums section of iTunes.
