John Brazell is a singer/songwriter from California and you definitely get that vibe, listening to him. Sort of got the same sunshine in his Folk Pop as Colbie Caillat. Three tunes on "Christmas Songs". John sings "Auld Lang Syne" as a lament and "Deck The Halls" lies somewhere between Indie Pop and a campfire gathering (although the musical bridge is very nice). No, you want this one for the original--John's first ever original Christmas song--"All I Want". That one is just perfectly crafted for radio play. It's a hit. Or would be, if radio programmers were doing their jobs properly. I can see it now. "All I Want" comes on the radio and multitudes of folks are bopping along as they drive down the highway. Nice groove. A little sunny for December, but that's just what you need, sometimes. Pick it up from Noisetrade (tips gratefully accepted). | |
