This beautiful TVC by The Foundry features me on vocals singing Mad World.
Mashing rhythmic piano-pop with a powerfully expressive voice, Jeremy Brennan is a songwriter for a new generation. His shoot-from-the-hip devil-growl delivery heralds the arrival of an unmistakeable voice in music, even prompting one reviewer to cry “Dayum, this man can sing!”.
With an envious catalogue of self-penned songs at his disposal, Jeremy Brennan’s live performances are also a surprise; he says “I’ve never, ever done the same set twice. I believe in the individual song - each one a gem, with it’s own peculiar flaws and unique setting, built to take you by surprise.“
Even his band is subject to the same variable. King Casual seems to be more a collective than a bona fide band, some gigs have seen as many as 10 people on stage.
Having honed his live skills with the likes of dance music legend Paul Mac, chanteuse Tina Arena, country duo The McMenamins, British performance artist David Hoyle, and Mardi Gras favourite DJ Mike Kelly, Jeremy’s influences must be huge to reflect such variety of collaboration. “I could tell you my favourite music today but you’d have a different answer tomorrow. Music is music - it’s not something to measure and dissect, it’s joy, and it’s beautiful sadness. It’s a happy heart, a bitter heart, sometimes a killer’s heart.”
my flatmate was raving about this fantastic show she saw called altar boyz... she said she loved it and wants to take me to see it...well done, she is a hard woman to please!
