Pennan_Brae Pennan Brae Vancouver Pennan Brae is a Vancouver-based singer-songwriter whose music has a vintage 1970s tinge employing lush string arrangements, roaming pedal steel guitar and a rich, driving beat. Brae's 4th release, The Astronot (2018), features 11 songs that serve as a soundtrack for the accompanying feature film The Astronot, which Brae wrote, co-produced, and acted in. The album was recorded at Blue Light Studio in Vancouver with Producer Kaj Falch-Nielsen, with additional sessions taking place in Los Angeles with renowned drummer Steve Ferrone (Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Duran Duran, Eric Clapton) and INXS bassist Garry Gary Beers. “Hearing Steve Ferrone lay down the drums and Garry Gary Beers adding bass on 'Walk with Me' and 'Crashland' is the highlight of my career,” says Brae. Composer & producer Eric Alexandrakis (Like A Puppet Show) served as a mentor and one of the producers on The Astronot, and it was he who brought in Steve and Garry. Producer Kirk Kelsey (Creed) joined the crew, working with Brae to make magic on the mixes, which include several instruments Brae has never used before – violin, cello, mandolin, pedal steel guitar, and banjo. “Kirk has such a wonderful touch and sensitivity on the tracks. His mixes gave the album a cinematic feel,” says Brae. The Astronot was mastered by Grammy Award winning engineer Sean Magee (The Beatles Remasters, Pink Floyd, U2) at Abbey Road Studios. Mostly The Astronot was the opportunity for the progress and change that Pennan Brae had been looking for. “My goal was to write an album instead of a group of separate singles. I wanted this record to flow from song 1 to song 10, and I think we did that. I hope that listeners enjoy hearing it unfold.” Pennan_Brae’s tracks Walk With Me - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:56 +0000 Strut - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:54 +0000 A Woman - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:53 +0000 Crashland - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:51 +0000 Pathways - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:48 +0000 Goin' Down - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:47 +0000 On The Highway - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:44 +0000 If I Lose You - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:41 +0000 Have You Ever Been - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:39 +0000 Won't You Spend The Night With Me - Pennan Brae by Pennan_Brae published on 2018/10/15 17:26:37 +0000
