Love On My Sleeve

from Spill Collateral Love by Brad Brooks

about

What was said:

Daily Rock (Swiss)
One thing is sure with Brad Brooks, he has a sense of drama. Scott Walker comes to mind. After a theatrical intro the music is powerful and without being cliché then elegantly turns to pop drama

Absolute Powerpop:
“Love On My Sleeve” builds to a Rufus Wainwright via Thom Yorke crescendo that never wears out its welcome over nearly six minutes.

lyrics

Brad Brooks Oakland, California

Brad Brooks is that rare quadruple threat of writer, player, singer, and performer.
His songs combine the melodic sensibility of Elvis Costello, the best instincts of Wilco and Brian Wilson, the orchestral sophistication of Queen, along w/the Stonesy/Bowie gritty edges of rock/soul.
"If you're anything like me, you need some good news. Brad Brooks' music is that good news”……….Wayne Kramer ... more
