THE BRENDAN HINES is a Los Angeles based songwriter/singing guitar player/band whose bailiwick is whiskey, whimsy, women and wit. His alliterative descriptions of himself tire no one. His album, "Good For You Know Who", is currently available on CD Baby and at the iTunes music store. An inherent mansuetude, occasional bitterness and a consistently wry humor mark his lyrics. He has a cat named Kilgore who is quite wealthy.

People who like THE BRENDAN HINES say things like this...
"With honesty that soothes you into your chair and then knocks you far off it, Hines writes the kind of songs that many wish they could write if they had 150% more guts, 80 years of hindsight and 6 warmed up strings...an instinctive and unconventional storyteller, Hines offers timeless wisdom, played out through humorous plots and relatable characters..."
-Bre Goldsmith (L.A. Acoustic Meet Up Blog)
"The new record from The Brendan Hines is called Good For You Know Who. The songs on the record deal with subjects as diverse as drinking yourself to death, suicide, more death and drinking, and selfish behavior of all sorts. Sounds a bit dreary, I know, but musically the songs are fairly jaunty filled with horns, toy instruments, piano and guitar and they mostly come with a pretty big slab of sarcasm on the side"
-Craig Bonnell (songs:illinois Blog)
"While he touches on your standard topics of love gone wrong, evil women and hitting the bottle too hard, he adds intelligent, contemporary lyrics to take things into this century. Quite frankly, he takes what could be complete downer themes and makes them kind of fun"
-Les Enfants Terribles Music Blog
"Hines blasts through the singer/songwriter genre with gallows humor, clipped phrasing, and a sweetly nostalgic, matter-of-fact baritone"
-Flavorpill
" Ma meglio non cedere alla scorciatoia dell’etichetta alt-country: il posto di Brendan Hines e soci non è in mezzo all’affollato scaffale di Ryan Adams e dei suoi emuli.
Ecco infatti farsi strada l’atmosfera fumosa e alcoolica di “Top Shelfâ€, che chiama in causa un giovane Tom Waits reinterpretato attraverso i chiaroscuri di Elvis Perkins, con tutto il senso di oblio di un lento affondare nella propria disillusione."
