BRASSTRONAUT-Old World Lies (EP)
Posted on May 29th, 2009 by ekko
Brasstronaut, a brass-and-keys centered quartet, released a strong EP in ’08 called “Old World Lies.” I just received it as a submission, and I’m passing my recommendation to you. It’s a little sad, a little moody, quite dramatic, and quite unlike anything you’ve heard before. Indie rock without the guitar, these songs would probably be straightforward if they had your average instruments, but with trumpet, flugelhorn, and piano, there’s nothing “normal” here.
Lead singer Edo Van Breeman has an unusual voice as well—it’s clear and without range, but perfectly suited to this incredibly musical band. For fans of Radiohead, Beirut, and rock-jazz.
