BRENDAN JAMES


last week i had the amazing chance to see my favorite new artist, brendan james, live.  it was quite possibly my favorite concert i have ever been to.  the performance was at a small bar late on a monday night so there were not that many people in the audience.  this made for a very intimate environment with everyone pretty much everyone having front-row seats.  it felt like we were over at brendan's house and he was entertaining us by sitting at his piano and playing a few of his songs.  it was amazing to not only hear some of my new favorite songs being played live (which i would argue sounded better than the CD) but also to hear the stories and meanings behind them.  his passion for what he does was palpable and quite inspiring to me.

after the show i was able to meet brendan which was pretty exciting.  i've been listening to his music pretty exclusively over the past few weeks so it was a bit surreal to shake his hand, get a photo, and talk with him face-to-face for a few minutes.  he was such a nice guy and the whole night just solidified why i am such a big fan of his.

go to itunes now and buy his music.
go to his website now (www.brendanjames.com) and find out when you can see him live.
go fall in love.
