Anyone who has been to Australia will tell you that its one of the most beautiful countries on earth, with stunning beaches, great cities and perfect weather. But singer-songwriter Kai Brown had to take the tough decision to leave all this behind - and his former band, the Tommy Flowers - and head Stateside to pursue a dream.
Armed with only his guitar, he hooked up with producer and former Jackopierce frontman Cary Pierce, wrote some songs and recorded the album "Better Now". In this interview with Melodic.net, Kai talks about all things from having members of Vertical Horizon play on his album to the traffic in LA!

Original born down under but now a San Diego, California resident
is solo artist KAI BROWN. His recent solo effort "Better Now" is
really more than worthwile checking out. Its a fine melodic release
in a mixture of Evan & Jaron and Brett Walkers recent material.
I came across the work of this talented songwriter through his
producer Cary Pierce who we all formerly know of the Dallas, Texas
outfit Jackopierce (new comeback album expected this summer !). This
"Better Now" release contains wonderful voice skills combined with
fantastic harmonical hooks, check out songs like "Everyday","Goodbye,
Goodnight","Cant Live Without" and the great titletrack !
I have a very strannge feeling this guy will become huge in the
near future, maybe not this time but with his next effort he might
become Aussies next Big thing that hails from down under San Diego !

One of the most influential bands of the last 2 decades - Kings X , are eyeing a late March release for their new studio album. Bassist/singer Dug Pinnick is a hardworking artist that recently released his new solo album "Strum sum up" on Magna Carta Records.The album is a must for every KX fan and the interview section of melodic.net feels a bit classier now with Mr.Pinnick as a part of it. |
