A classicist, Oblon played bass, drums, and guitar on Paul Simon’s critically acclaimed So Beautiful or So What. Extending that reality, the New England-raised son of a musical family takes his musical ecumenism even farther. Oblon follows his EP “Live at the FooBar” with the evocative Sunset, a variety of ballads, vintage rock, and standards, recorded with master organist Larry Goldings and legendary drummer Jim Keltner.
