New album "Big City Beats" out very soon

About Me

Urban soul music written from the heart ..."captures the subtle melacholic moments whilst delivering straight from the hip" John Prior NME. International performing musician from Sydney Australia became a Berlin resident in 2006 after a European tour for debut album"Two Hours Away".Whether the subject matter is love,loneliness or topics more slippery, a typical Brandon song demands your attention,roots firmly planted in both alternative culture and the art rock legacy of classic rockers. He has been tagged at various points of his career as a neo traditionalist,a maverick experimenter, a timeless troubadour and a Beatlesque psychedelic revivalist. Currently mixing the new album"BIG CITY BEATS" and performing with his new Berlin based band the "The Revelators" throughout Germany and Europe.You can also visit www.stephenbrandon.com and buy the album and see and hear more.LIVE IN BERLIN 2007 "Night After Night"
