"You're beauty underlines you, but it is not who you are"


I am a singer/songwriter/youthworker
 /artist/prophet kind of guy. For me the music is about finding the sounds that tell the story. I like to hear words that challenge as much as they inspire and I like to meet people who do the same. I've been writing songs since the age of 4 and recording since the age of 16. My new album, "Work in Progress" is now available on iTunes and Napster. I am a long time fan of Greenbelt Festival and the God who inspired it. I'm now like a million years old and still looking for my own sound. If anyone out there has it can you email it to me.

  • Review

    For anyone who missed it - this is the review I got on at www.crossrhythms.co.uk

    I scored an acceptable 6/10

    Reviewed by Nigel Harris

    "This is Seaton, Devon-based Pete Brazier's latest solo release, a 'Work In Progress' that eventually got finished! Pete has been a member of various bands since 1986 - Purple Emperor/Vision, the intriguingly titled Influential Love Bunnies and The Teatime Experience to name but a few, but most of his albums have been solo releases. Solo, but not just singer and acoustic guitar. Pete is a versatile keyboard player and clearly has some considerable studio skills as he weaves together multiple layers of vocals with electronic drums, keyboards and guitars. 'Work In Progress' is a collection of songs which he says "have been floating around so long I thought they'd never find their way out of the studio." There's a bit of a Beatles vibe to the opening "Shooting Stars". "Encircle Me" tries (maybe a little too hard?) to do a bit of a dance thing with keyboard and vocal loops. The intricate instrumental "New Town" was originally a composition used as the background music to the website for The Big Fish Café, a youth event organized by Seaton Methodist Church in which Pete plays a big part. I particularly enjoyed "This Tiny Place", which has Pete in Crowded House (perhaps Jethro Tull would be a closer comparison, Pete's vocals are very reminiscent of Ian Anderson) folk/rock mode - complete with some nice vocal harmonies from Pete himself! It would be easy to criticise the production quality of this album, certainly the vocals could be better, but they are usually the weak part of any low budget recording. However, the quality of the songwriting and Pete's creativity shine though."

    will be doing some more work on the new album soon...

  • New track

    Not only have i actually got round to putting new strings on my guitar but I've also just recorded a track that's been half written for a while - nailed it, and I'm quite pleased with it too. Its not often I'm happy with my guitar playing but this track is all guitars and I'm still smiling. It's called Measuring the Distance, go see if you like it. :)
