My name is Brook Pridemore and, for better or for worse, I've taken the wheel of this big magic hellride.Some things about me:They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, but the way to my heart is through my addiction to caffeine.I played two hundred and one shows in 2007, all across the US and Canada. I'm trying to break that number in 2008.If you make me a mixtape/cd, I'll make you one back.I will play anywhere, any time, in front of anyone. Within reason.I believe in the use of all words, regardless of context or connotation.I have four albums, readily available, released by Crafty Records.The first is called Metal and Wood, and is a collection of the best recordings I made in my home state of Michigan. When I first heard it, I thought it sounded better than the minimal effort I put into making it.The second is called First Name/Last Name, which is a big glossy studio production, featuring drummer Mikey Erg!, Crafty house bassist Adam Z, and guest contributions from Guitar Bomb and Hallie Unloveable. The production quality is slicker than owl shit, but I think the songs will stand the test of time.The third is called The Reflecting Skin, featuring return performances by Mikey Erg! and Adam Z, with the addition of accordion virtuoso Steve Seck, and a host of guest vocalists including Toby Goodshank, Andrew Hoepfner, David LK Murphy, Dan Costello, and the Ghost Mice (Chris, Hannah and Pascaloo). Same studio, same engineer, but we didn't overthink things, and I'm not fucking kidding when I refer to this disc as my Double Nickels on the Dime.The fourth is called Brook Pridemore Sings Greatest Antifolk Hits. Eleven of my favorite songs from the New York Antifolk Scene. Songs by Adam Green, Kimya Dawson, Soft Black and more. It's mostly acoustic, but features guest performances by Toby Goodshank, Dan Costello and Michael David Campbell.I hope to see you soon. I like you.
