   About brooke brown saracino

brooke brown saracino


folk singer-songwriter



Since finishing college in 2005, Brooke Brown Saracino has made a fearless plunge into the crowded world of folk music, and she hasn’t gone unnoticed. She was honoured in the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Singer/Songwriter showcase in both 2005 and 2006 and competed in the 93.9 the River’s Singer/Songwriter contest. Brooke has opened for Lori Mckenna, Rose Polenzani, Beth Amsel, and Cheryl Wheeler among others. She currently tours the folk clubs, coffeehouses, bars, churches and living rooms of New England.

Brooke was born and raised in the hills of western Massachusetts surrounded by aspiring and accomplished folk musicians alike. Family stories place Brooke as a mischievous toddler who loved a stage. Whether it was the landing in the living room at busy family gatherings or the bench seat in local restaurants, Brooke always attracted an audience.

Her formalized musical training began with the performing arts high school she attended. Surrounded by creative and self-expressive teenagers, the effervescent childhood performer was locked inside an unassuming adolescent. A teacher, soon to become mentor, discovered that the skilful musician had a delightful voice and the ability to write mature and sophisticated prose. He dared Brooke to perform her work on stage.

Though Brooke certainly doesn’t need any coaxing now to step up to the stage, remnants of her quieter days still remain. Her gentle stage presence stands in stark contrast to her poignant lyricism and the power backing her clear and emotive voice. It is this combination of strength and vulnerability that leaves the listener spellbound.

Brooke is a truly independent artist. Having studied audio editing software manuals and experimented with any recording gear she could get her hands on, she recorded, edited and produced her debut album, Treading Water. With an arsenal of borrowed microphones, the musical backing of friends new and old, and the use of her college music professor’s study as a recording space, Brooke set to work. This would be no home recording, this was the real thing. Treading Water, which includes ten original songs featuring Brooke on vocals and guitar, accompanied by trumpet, accordion, and drums on some tracks, establishes Brooke as one of the pre-eminent folk singers in New England.

Dear Brooke,

Thank you so much for introducing me to your circle of friends.

I find your music to be enchantingly beautiful, compelling, fresh and original, something that I know will keep on drawing me back again and again. I can't thank you enough for seeking me out to share such joyous treasures, except to add bravo!!!

You have a lovely voice, Brooke, and you use it to nuanced and layered perfection in dealing out your wonderful tunes.

Wishing you happiness and tranquility in all things.

Here's a peaceful scene, not far from where I live, to add to your local bi-coastal greenery, as a souvenir upon which to reflect, and for good luck.

With much love,

Joel

We’re capping off a great year with one final show at The Paradise Lounge. Join us as we headline The Paradise Lounge on THURSDAY DECEMBER 13th for the last time this year along with our friends Casey Desmond, The Boston Molasses Disaster, and Christopher James.

This will be a big show because we will be debuting songs from our new CD, which will be released in February and the two EPs that we have recorded this year.

We’d love if it you came out and partied with us. Answers to questions and autographed 8x10's available by visiting our profile.

P.S. Just kidding about the 8x10's
