About Me

Album pick of the month – Aaron Byrd, KCRW Los Angeles.
“Great colorful splashes and some of that raw deep soul that never goes out of fashion". - The Irish Times.
"Brian has a voice that triggers memories of comfort,just lie back and enjoy" - DJ Ease - Nightmares on Wax
…Assured, soulful Brian Deady is a man to watch" - Ashley Beedle.
..”Brian has propelled himself to the top of the pile with this ambitious release” Choice Cuts.
October 2009 has seen the release of Brian Deady’s debut album – ‘Interview’ which has planted him firmly on the radar and has gained the attention of discerning ears such as Nightmares on Wax and Ashley Beedle.
His own blend of Soul, Pop, Disco, Funk & Doo Wop commutes between influences such as Steely Dan, Marvin Gaye and more contemporary artists such as Erykah Badu and Outkast.
‘Interview’ is the product of three years work and features production from Colm K, Ross O’ Donovan, Ishfaq (Croatia), B Bravo (San Francisco) and Deady himself. He has opened for acts such as Candi Staton, Poets of Rhythm, Laura Izibor, Mayer Hawthorne and Talib Kweli.
Tracks such as ‘Land On The Moon ‘ and ‘Over Like MacGyver ‘ have worked their way into the hearts of Los Angeles DJ’ s Garth Trinidad and Aaron Byrd on KCRW Radio, while title Track ‘Interview’ has made it’s way into the Heineken USA ‘Holiday Playlist Download’.
Brian is currently planning a Europe and America tour this summer, and is currently working on a follow up EP.

Band Members: Paidraig Murphy - synths & keyboardsRory McGovern - KeyboardsRob Foster - BassNiwel Tsumbu - GuitarThomas Gall - Drums/Percussion
Influences: Too many to try and put in a box, but at random: Al Green,Marvin Gaye,John Coltrane,Phil Lynott,Mike McDonald , Jimi Hendrix,John Lennon , new stuff Keziah Jones,Jay Electronica,Amp Fiddler, D'angelo,Erykah Badu, Est ,a thousand other names that mean just as much, but what i'm really talking about is more than just a name , :electricity: like the first time i heard the opening riff of 'move on up by Curtis Mayfield,da da da da da dada..for performance :Elvis - The Aloha Hawaii Show , on vhs of course watching the video of Phil Lynott walking down the street and on the ha' penny bridge for the song 'Old Town'- Steely Dan -more than ever these days.Sitting in my room as a kid with a tape deck recording the Larry Gogan Golden Hour or The Mikey Mac Show - a collage of audio, songs mashed up together and melted into the latest radio ads ,using the rudest of technology, tapes broken and then tied up together or super glued with sophistication, Stevie Wonder ,Led Zepplin Earth,Wind And Fire, The Bee Gee's , The Boys are back in town ,anything everything , Observing my mother's reaction in the kitchen when one of the old tunes comes on the radio - rejuvenation, Phasers set to stun like the first time i heard Dr Dre and Snoop's 'Ain't nothin but that G thang's pulse come to life in my ears -I can't leave out the first album I ever bought (on Tape) Prodigy Experience- was like jumping out of a plane and being hit by the rush of sound colour and adreneline. My Influences.. Songs I dont know the names of but yet are imprinted on my soul. Tunes I may never hear again but that came along at the right time and then dissappeared for years only to show up one day when you're passing a cafe or waiting in your local Tax office or something . Some of the most poignant times of my life have a soundtrack playing somewhere in the back .. way back.
Sounds Like: something I'd say alright..
