My latest cd, "A Song for Me, A Song for You", is now available on COMPACT DISC and as DOWNLOADS at Cd BABy: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/scottbrookman
I have been writing and recording tuneful pop songs since the mid-80’s, when I was suddenly able to do it. I wrote many of the songs performed by the well-received regional band, The Apes of Wrath, who gigged around Virginia in the 80’s. At around the same time I began recording home demos on a variety of 4-track portastudios, discovering that I could improvise harmony with myself that sounded pretty good. The so-called “home tapers” movement accepted me and I began sharing music with a larger body of listeners. All in all there were something like 6-8 tape releases from the end of the 80’s through the mid 90’s.
As the 90’s ended, Twee Kitten Records from California released my music: one 7”, a cd-ep, and one full-length cd, For Those Who Like POP. The latter release in particular was, considering its zero budget, successful. Not only did it sell well, but it was picked up for reissue in Japan by Vroom-Sound. Music from the cd was used extensively in the PBS kids show, "Dragonfly TV". There were flattering reviews in underground ‘zines, a few larger circulation magazines and even Japan’s "Beikoku-Ungaku". Somewhere along the line I wrote an original song used in the film "Golfballs".
Spring 2007 saw the release of a new digital download album, “A Song for Me, A Song for You." It includes 14 songs merging styles ranging from bossa nova, to jazz/rock to Beatley numbers. It has been a privilege to work with Jack Shannon, Anthony Allen, Stewart Myers, Palmer Wilkins and Ashley Bell in making this music. The same album is now finally available as a compact disc.
For the ever-evolving "Smellicopter" album, I've been working again with Anthony, Jack and Palmer here locally in Viriginia. Nathan Goodwyn laid down some bass tracks in May.
I am also lucky enough to be adding the talents of some friends from across the Atlantic. The amazingly talented Roland Wolff, of Riviera, a great pop group, represents Germany. Roland plays a multipicity of instruments and sings on five or six songs. Yani Martinelli, formerly of Navy Blue and resident of Madrid, has so far recorded guitars and vocals for one song. (We'll extend that soon I hope) And...France's own Purple Submarine Orchestra have finally perfected their recordings for one song, "Very Anne Waits for the Right Shade of Blue."
