Award Winner! - 2009 Omaha Entertainment and Arts Awards Best adult alternative/singer-songwriter
Recently described in SPIN as one of Omaha's "best troubadours,” Brad Hoshaw's somber melodies and "sweet high lonesome sound"(David Dondero), have been compared to Damien Jurado, Townes Van Zandt and Paul Simon. Over the course of seven albums and more than twelve years of live performances, Hoshaw’s style has flowed seamlessly from youthful Pop/Rock to a timeless and genuine brand of Americana/Folk.
In April of 2008, Hoshaw assembled a multitude of all-star musicians to become, Brad Hoshaw & the Seven Deadlies. In their short time together they have already shared the stage with American Music Club and Black Francis (Frank Black of the Pixies), received honors at the 2009 Omaha Entertainment Awards, headlined the inaugural Mid-American Music Festival and celebrated the release of their debut self-titled album with a SOLD OUT performance at Saddle Creek Record’s SLOWDOWN.
Brad Hoshaw & the Seven Deadlies is a collection of new material recorded at Omaha’s Music Factory Productions and mixed by A.J. Mogis (The Good Life, Faint, Cursive) at ARC Studios. Brad Hoshaw & the Seven Deadlies reflects the experiences and observations that Brad has perceived in his life and through the lives of others. It is a dynamic journey from melancholy melodies and contemplative lyrics to heart swelling crescendos and soaring guitars.
