Brian Perry: About the Music

Here’s a bit about how we describe the music in our promo materials:

At the intersection of Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, and Garth Brooks you find New Orleans’ singer/songwriter Brian Perry playing his own emotive brand of contemporary acoustic pop-roots-rock. The music is inspiring and thought-provoking, the lyrics honest and well-crafted, the passion contagious. 

 

Here is some of what others have to say about singer/songwriter Brian Perry:

“Worth celebrating as one of the Deep South's best lyricists.” -- Offbeat, New Orleans, LA

“The intimate set I shared with the gentle-voiced, guitar-strummer from New Orleans...instilled in me a genuine appreciation for the craft of singer/songwriters. I think Perry... may be a big music angel with an even bigger talent sent to show me how well it can be done.” -- Gambit Weekly, Baton Rouge, LA

“Perry writes powerful, enthralling roots rock based more in funky grooves than cheap sentimentality.” -- EAT'M Music Conference, Las Vegas, NV

“Everything about [Perry] looks forward and inward at the same time.” -- Mountain Xpress, Asheville, NC
