July 13, 2015

Liz Brennan is an Austin based singer songwriter and she has one of those voices that will grab a hold of you from the first listen. She reminds me of a modern day Laura Branigan delivering a blend of alternative and 80’s pop with a fresh new flair.  Her powerful vocals are inviting and emotive and take you on a musical journey of emotions. Check out her recently released lyric video for her song, Expected to Fly: Liz explains the inspiration for the song, ‘Expected to Fly’ was originally based on a Martin Luther King Jr. quote, ‘if you can’t run, walk, if you can’t walk, crawl, I thought… if you can’t crawl, jump! The song is about growing up and losing friendships that you’re trying to hold on to. It is about holding onto things that make you, you.” Liz is set to release her new EP later this summer. It was produced by Kevin Killen, best known for engineering Peter Gabriel’s “So” and Elvis  Costello’s “Spike.” Featured musicians on the new EP include: Gerry Leonard (David Bowie, Suzanne Vega); Zev Katz (Hall & Oates); Mark Copley (Rosanne Cash); [Read More]
