Brandon Pyle
This will be my first venture into the magical world of internet music. I love to listen to other people's stuff so I figured I'd try my hand at it too. I will probably be indiscriminant about what I put here because I just like recording songs. So, If you don't like one song, skip it and chances are the next one will be different. If you don't like two in a row, maybe you should just move on . . . no hard feelings.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I have with a few different rock bands as well as solo acoustic. I love it. A special moment would probably be playing to thirty people in a campground bar in Canada on the 4th of July. They loved it so eventually I just started asking for requests and playing whatever they yelled out.
Your musical influences
I grew up on gospel music and Jim Croce, so I love songwriting and anything with soul. Since I have really gotten into just straight up rock and roll, but I don't do much of it unless its with a band. Storytelling is the key for me, I love a song that you can put yourself into.
What equipment do you use?
The acoustic I play mostly is one that my dad bought in the 70's, I don't know what kind it is but it is loud and sounds pretty good. Electric stuff is an American Tele and a pre-Gibson Epiphone, and a few Fender amps.
Anything else?
If you find yourself here listening to this music and you like the songs, drop me a line. If you think it's dog-shit, I'd be even more happy to hear about it, honest dislike is far more flattering than a fake compliment.
