The New High

Brent is back. After a five-year-long hiatus, the multi-instrumentalist from Athens, GA returns with his third album album. Continuing the tradition of his previous, widely celebrated albums How Will I Know If I’m Awake and How Strange It Seems, he once again enters melody wonderland – evoking classic pop songwriting from the 60s and 70s – chock-full of sophisticated arrangements, richly textured vocal harmonies and extravagant key changes. It’s proof that pop music is alive and well in 2017. Brent decided to record the album Todd Rungdren-style this time. Each and every instrument is played by the man himself – except for the string section. It adds an earthy edge to his sunshine pop brilliance.
