Who: The Remnants Window
Alt Folk
Hello, my name is Ben Latimer, and I play under the moniker of
The Remnants Window. I’m a singer-songwriter in Portland,
Oregon. Blending ethereal alt-folk and jazz influences, I play
music as a pathway to understand myself and synthesize with
the beautifully complex world we live in.
Externally I find inspiration from my personal stories, the
natural beauty of nature, works of poetry, and fantasy, with
topics of human isolation, self-estrangement, death, and the
tragedy of self-harm, but with a gentle reminder of hope, hand
in hand. You will hear voice, saxophone, electronic elements,
and guitar if you come out to a show. My musical influences are
Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens, Billy Holiday, Sam Gendel, The Tallest
Man On Earth, Iron & Wine, Adrianne Lenker, Maurice Ravel,
Mike Lewis, Colin Stetson, and Chet Baker.
