   About don brownrigg
Music with spirit. Music akin to roots, folk, blues, and country, Don Brownrigg is a musician's musician... Halifax based Newfoundlander Don Brownrigg's musical meanderings are catalogued on his debut release Wander Songs - a recording of non assuming folk-pop music that has spirit and is sincere and heartfelt in it's delievery. Brownrigg blends folk, blues and country with his haunting voice, morose melodies and pensive writing.

"...takes the listener in instantly and, like a good novel, keeps you captivated from beginning to end. Acoustic based, the songs don't try too hard and aren't intimidating in any way - it's just beautiful, truthfully written music." (The Telegram, St. John's, NL)

Wander Songs, a "prolific musical anthology" (The Coast) and "timeless anthology of thoughts" (ChartAttack) is 11 songs of pensive, self-reflective, and morose imagery. Produced by Brownrigg, this very grass-roots project features many of his friends and some of Canada's finest musicians providing instrumentation and backing vocals, and was recorded in Halifax by Donald Mackay at Spaces Between Sound Studio. In September of 2007 Wander Songs was released to a crowded and eager Khyber Club in Halifax. Toronto's (weewerk) records re-released Wander Songs nationally in May, 2008.
