About Me

" SET THE CONTROLS FOR REVELATION'S TAPE RECORDER" HE SAYSWHY? WHAT?"Because it's up to us to provide a decent soundtrack..."Bret has been chasing the vibrations inside his head for a long time! At the tender age of 15 with his first band, The Mindset, BRET people were already lending their ears including legendary Californian rock journalist and founder of Bomp records, the late Greg Shaw, (of the original CREEM MAGAZINE STAFF), dug it. Bret has been offering up a timeless brew of psychedelic ("...but it has always been R&R whatever way look at it.") sounds which aim to stay in your head for much longer than the length of the trax."My ambition is to make records that will stand the test of time...that's what it all about to me...to make an Album that will sit comfortably alongside the one's I can't help but keep coming back to...We are living in a post postmodern world...Rock&Roll has very little to do with actual innovation now...Now it should be people's intentions to just make records WITH SUBSTANCE that celebrate, rearticulate the sonic achievements of yesteryear, synthesized by & with new blood: NOW THAT WOULD BE INNOVATION TODAY.""IT'S STILL JUST ABOUT MAKING GREAT ROCK&ROLL""AS CLICHIED AS THAT MAY SOUND...PEOPLE STILL DESERVE IT!"Now solo, Bret is more determined than ever to share his sounds with as many people as possible!
