Whether solo or accompanied by drummer Kent Blackmer, Brooks effortlessly traverses the American Roots spectrum, from touching folk ballad, to foot-stomping honky-tonk, country blues and roots rock. Brooks is “a storyteller on stage” and “a man with a great sense of humor” (Lisa Sammett, The Music Box), with “a voice that runs the gamut from boisterous to soulful to sweet” (Monadnock Ledger). With three critically-acclaimed albums under his belt and a fourth on the way, Brooks is widely considered “one of the handful of Vermont artists with the sound, the original songs, and the voice to make the leap from local to national” (Vermont Public Radio). | | Plak Şirketi | SWM looking for label.
