The Workday Release is a solo project created by David Ottestad in 2008. Based out of Orange County, CA, Ottestad self-released his first record “To the Beginning” in 2009. Showing a wide range of style, “To the Beginning” was Ottestad’s way of searching for a sound to expand on. With a passion for both ambient, rock and acoustic, pop, he created another band in 2010 called The Wandering Tree. Under this title, the rock record “Farther from Familiar” was released.
