Cary BrothersCary Brothers

No not The Cary Brothers, but Cary Brothers, a singer-songwriter whose music has been featured on TV and in film, most notably the television show, Scrubs and Zach Braff’s indie film, Garden State. Brothers' music is filled with quixotic, emotional themes and lush, textured soundscapes; his sumptuous voice exudes a warm sensuality, and luxurious romanticism while still maintaining strong indie-rock flavour. In 2007/2008 he released his debut full-length album Who You Are which won Best Rock Album of the Year by the Indie Acoustic Project. A remix of the album track “Ride”, remixed by Tiesto, was a huge hit this year in the clubs throughout Europe. This summer he toured Europe, including many stops in the UK, headlining the Hotel Cafe tour.

I recently chatted with Cary about what he was up to now, and what we can expect from him in the future. He was excited about recording a new album, saying, "Whereas the last record was six years of writing and studios and piecing together songs like puzzles, this is a very relaxed process. It is happening organically, but with all of the collected wisdom of the last few years of life, and being on the road. Can't wait to get the new record out..." And you can look for that early in the summer of 2009. For more information about Cary, or to hear his music you can find him at his MySpace space.
