Brooksie Wells, veteran children's musician and mother of two, returns to her country and rock roots with a new CD. Recorded in her Warrenton home studio, she combined local talent with well-known old friends from her early days in the music business, both to perform and produce the recording. She then called on Sperryville's Oasis Recording to manufacture the finished product.
Discovered by Bobby Darin, Brooksie wrote for years for Chapel Music, with several of her songs used in recordings and movie soundtracks. She later performed with John Lennon's band Elephant's Memory and as a singer with Kid Creole and the Coconuts. (Kid Creole's recording "Off The Coast Of Me" has just been re-released on Island Records.)
While raising two kids in the early 1990's, she became an international children's performer, recording "Rainbow Family" and "Brooksie's Kid Songs."
Returning to her singer-songwriter roots, she released "Call It A Day" in the late 1990's to critical acclaim, followed by "Been There" an album of twelve all-original alt.country songs. Brooksie will soon release "Anything But Love" - her 5th solo album.

Glad to see and hear that the new CD is finished. It sounds great and I did order it from CD Baby! I liked hearing it better with just you and your guitar at your place though ;-). Wishing you lots of luck and all good things in the future.
Hey Brooksie - I just finished listening to your CD. I think you did a great job. I have to tell you, I really enjoyed the variety in the mix of all the songs you included. High Road was my favorite...I was trying to pluck out the tune right after it finished but I enjoyed every song.
Hola my dear Ms Wells You are looking & singing swell Just wanted to officially thank you for making me cool as chicken soup by bringing me into your cyber loop Hope you don't mind my rhyme Cause in some circles it can be considered a crime
