Biografia
Strangely enough for one of the most beloved new country singers around, Cary Brothers grew up loathing country music. What’s more, the fact that he didn’t grow up listening to country music might be the reason that his music has resonated with fans and critics alike. See, as a musician, Brothers is influenced by pretty much everything but the music of his native Nashville, whether it’s early 80’s post-punk or the singing and songwriting legends of the 1970’s. It was how these esoteric influences and styles mixed with his interpretation of country music, which he eventually got into once he relocated from Nashville to Los Angeles, that made him such an exciting sound when he released his 2004 debut E.P “All The Rage”.
After his second E.P was released in 2005, he signed a record deal with Bluhammock Music in 2007 and released his debut album the same year. “Who You Are” was massively acclaimed and charted on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart, however Brothers’ name was made not by radio play and touring. Instead, his main exposure has come through songs of his appearing in a multitude of films and TV shows including The Last Kiss, Smallville and Grey’s Anatomy to name but a few. Ever since then, he’s remained a cult concern but one with more respect than many earn in an entire career. He’s toured with everyone from KT Tunstall to The Fray, worked with the likes of Rachael Yamagata and Butterfly Boucher, and for being one of the underground heroes of American folk music, Cary Brothers comes highly recommended.

Whatever you think of Zach Braff or indeed his film making, there’s no question that his feature film debut, Garden State, was a generation-defining affair, if for no other reason that the soundtrack to the film introduced a number of indie musicians to a wider audience on a scale that hadn’t really been seen before and hasn’t really been repeated since. Whilst it was probably The Shins that enjoyed the greatest exposure - with two songs featured and a now-famous mention in the script - there were some genuinely underground artists involved, too, including Cary Brothers; that’s the name of the solo singer, not of a band of siblings. Brothers’ track ‘Blue Eyes’ was featured in the film and epitomises his soft brand of acoustic balladry, although he’s also collaborated on electronic music with Tiesto and pursued various DIY projects. He’s now turning his attentions to a third solo full-length album, so expect some fleshed-out, full-band shows to follow its release, as and when it happens; for the meantime, YouTube is home to a slew of superb acoustic performances by Brothers; it’s when he strips his song down to the bare bones that they really come to life.
