Details of Chris Brain
Artist / Band
Details
Chris Brain renders songs embedded in folk tradition with a contemporary resonance. Hailing from Yorkshire, Brain finds inspiration from pastoral landscape and soaring figures from the natural world. He released his debut, critically acclaimed and widely distributed album, Bound to Rise, in 2022. Capturing 10 live performances of enthralling meditations on nature with glimpses of the confessional, Bound to Rise was driven by his distinctive fingerpicked guitar and warm vocals. Now working on a second album to be released at the start of October 2023 and to be toured nationally in October/November 2023. Daily Express - ‘A gentle, intoxicating debut album by Yorkshire folkie Brain. He’s a superb fingerpick- ing guitarist whose soft vocal will immediately bring comparisons with Nick Drake, while his playing style bears comparison with another late legend, John Martyn. The themes of nature, sunshine and flight in tracks like Bound To Rise, Flying On Time and Peace & Quiet allow him to create an enchanting introduction.’ Yorkshire Post - ‘Leeds-based Chris Brain specialises in songs full of bucolic imagery to which his balmy voice with shades of John Martyn, Nick Drake and Colin Blunstone and intricate fingerpicking are ideally suited.’
