Brasstronaut

When former the Videos member Edo Vehicle Breeman realized he’d written tunes that didn’t quite match his current band’s fast-paced audio, the Miami-raised, Vancouver-based musician joined up with trumpeter Bryan Davis to totally realize the tunes. Joined up with by Brennan Saul on drums and John Walsh on bass, the recently formed four-piece shipped their 1st EP, Old Globe Lies, in Sept 2008. After getting reviews that are positive for the EP, the music group were provided a residency within the 2009 Banff Music artists in Residence system in the Banff Center in Alberta. Using enough time to collaborate, create even more materials, and lastly record, the right now extended six-piece — including Tariq Hussain on acoustic guitar and Sam Davidson on clarinet and EWI — going from a tour of THE UNITED STATES, although they recognized they were unsatisfied with the producing mixes of what will be their debut recording. Time for Vancouver, the music group re-recorded and rewrote the materials to match their now-expanded sonic palette and their debut recording, Support Chimaera, finally made an appearance in March 2010. Getting reviews that are positive upon discharge, although unfairly getting dubbed indie-jazz rock and roll with the press — the band’s fuller-sounding path had even more in keeping with fellow Canadians Arcade Fireplace and Tucson, Arizona’s Calexico — the record was eventually longer detailed for the renowned 2010 Polaris Music Award. Placing the drawn-out documenting procedure for their debut in it, the band came back to the studio room in 2011 — this time around with Colin Stewart (Ladyhawke, the Cave Performers) at his Hive Studios in Victoria, United kingdom Columbia — to record their sophomore discharge. The ensuing Mean Sun made an appearance the following season. Spending the majority of 2012 and 2013 marketing the record with travels across Canada, the U.S., and European countries, the six-piece ultimately went their distinct ways to concentrate on specific projects beyond Brasstronaut. With Truck Breeman located in NY, drummer Saul in Winnipeg, and all of those other music group in Vancouver, the group chosen a democratic method of documenting their third record, with each member adding several songs right into a pool of materials. Taking a even more stripped-back and upbeat strategy than on 2012’s Mean Sunlight, the band documented the final details at studios in NY and Vancouver, as soon as again earned Colin Stewart to oversee the creating. Their self-titled third discharge appeared on the tail-end of 2016.
