Influences
Everything I've ever heard. And some I haven't. I don't honestly know where my style comes from. I just create and it is what it becomes. Music is art, and thats how I treat it.

Brian Mallard started playing music roughly 5 years ago. Freshly divorced, he picked up a guitar he had for years, but had never really done anything with and started playing other people’s songs. This far from satisfied him, so, he began writing his own songs, and, his words, “They sucked. Then I fell in love with a woman – The Luminous Woman - that didn't love me back, and Renegade was born.” Brian started writing songs that were from the heart, meaningful. The songs were originally of a folk-rock nature.
He recorded on makeshift studio equipment - a stereo for monitor, a karaoke machine for echo, a Radio Shack four channel mixer, and a tape deck. He recorded this way for a while, but eventually out growing the make shift studio, Mallard invested in a professional home studio set-up, titled Luminous Studio.
All the while Brian’s songs – and sound – got better and better. “Luminous Woman” was the first of his songs to really gather attention. Then, eventually, he wrote “There's No Reason (We Can't Fall In Love.)” That song attracted a lot of attention. Not believing he could top that, he then wrote “Let The Past Go”… which became known as “Oh Wo.”
“The Luminous Woman eventually left me shivering outside, as my song Shackled to Your Cage says, but I continue to write play and record songs.”
Brian’s resume includes running an Open Mic Night at a club called Rhino's, although it is now closed. He has played gigs around town – and performed in a Gay, Georgia fair. He also occasionally acts as a back-up host for the The Loft Live’s Open Mic Night. One of Brian’s biggest accomplishments has been his newly finished 10-track debut album, “Luminous Woman,” recorded with other local musicians at Luminous Studio.
“I write, I play, I deal with Luminous Women, yes there has been another one, but I'm still here, slightly wiser and more rockin’! Rock On, Everybody, Rock On!! And for all you people, men and women who have loved and lost – I feel your pain, and I sing about it. These songs are for you.”
Cancer Benefit at Del Ranch in Smiths Station December 13
"...Del Ranch is one of those classic rural honky tonks that probably would have fit in nicely in your first book, if you wrote one, just up the road from Smith's Station High School, which Conway Twitty attended for a while... the big promos coming next month will be on the 2nd Schryl Carden Breast Cancer Benefit there on December 13th..."
The fundraiser then proceeds in open mic at 8pm Sunday night... come sing, or listen, and enjoy the unique DR experience, out in beautiful Smith's Station, Alabama.

Yes, as you know, I'm all for promotion, but that's just a bit obnoxious, & of course makes it where nobody can even play /your/ songs. The same thing happened with my page sometime last Summer. That's why I have mine rigged to keep it form happening again. If Robbie's there he can show you quickly where to go to "disable html" on here, and then the person won't come back & do it again. When I had it happen last time, the same person kept coming back & posting the stuff over. The only way to stop them was to block everyone else, much to my sorrow... *sniff*
Some hip-hop person has taken over your page... when anyone comes here their song starts playing automatically. This is why I had to disable the ability to post anything but text on my page.
