Brian Kremer’s debut, Climbing The Vine, is not one of a young upstart. This singer/songwriter’s journey includes such adventures as a thousand mile solo hike, contributions on a 2003 Grammy-nominated album of choral music, and a few years of furniture making. He’s lived in the Vermont woods and in several major cities, all in the northern U.S., until his fateful move to Austin, TX. Music, and specifically singing, has been at the center of Kremer’s entire life, and he has aimed to make his own album since early childhood years spent in front of the record player. He just needed to wait for the right moment.
Complemented by his professionally trained voice, Climbing The Vine is based in Americana roots and British folk and pop, with influences by artists like Gary Louris (The Jayhawks), Richard Thompson, and Lucinda Williams. Featuring guest appearances from Austin-natives Cindy Cashdollar on steel guitar, Chip Dolan on piano and organ, and the Tosca String Quartet, Brian Kremer’s 10 original tracks have inevitably profited from his patience and inclination to look within.

Hey Brian, Eric and I are loving your cd, which we got today. You've come a long way from singing Tutti Frutti while wearing that black and white breakdancing jacket - which was my favorite hand-me-down ever!
Hi Brian all is well with me. I am just enjoying the nice weather and looking forward to the weekend coming up. Hope you have a good weekend too and please keep in touch!
Brian! How are you doing? My band is coming to Austin. Nicole is coming with us as well so maybe you and yours could come out and hang with us. Cheers.
Actually, I'm on my way back home. I'm taking my time and visiting friends along the way, so I'll probably be back by Saturday. Hope you're doing well. See you soon!
May I borrow some of YourSpace to promote MyCdRelease?
The all new, all original CRUELTY arrives Tuesday, July 29, and I'll celebrate with a show at Austin's legendary Cactus Cafe. It's free, aside from the $15 you'll certainly want to spend on the CD. Raina Rose opens at 8:30 pm, then Southpaw Jones performs in his finest suit, and nothing will ever be the same.
