Singer/songwriter Jay Brannan returns to the UK!

Jay’s much anticipated sophomore full-length as-yet-unnamed album will be released end of March but the single, and video, “Beautifully” is out Jan 16 and showcases a remarkable storytelling talent, sharing the plight of a person falling for a close friend whose attraction is just platonic. The track was produced by Grammy-winner David Kahne (Regina Spektor, Paul McCartney, The Bangles, Lana Del Rey etc) who adds an element of instrumental texture to Jay’s songwriting, hinting at a slightly new direction.

With a devout online fan community (thanks to a self-described Internet-addiction and a serious case of insomnia) Jay couldn’t wait to share some new music and recently leaked the track “Greatest Hits” from the new album, you can see it here http://bit.ly/orHYSJ.

With sell-out shows already in London and the bigger cities, the buzzcut Texan is rapidly establishing himself as an independent voice a la Ani DiFranco, or the male Joni Mitchell.

Take your pick, but Jay melts the cool surfer dudeness of Jack Johnson with the piercing and plaintive Nick Drake. Our ever deprecating hero and his butter-wouldn’t-melt delivery bonds his ventures in to witty anecdotes and two-way repartee. No mute singer-songwriter staring at the ground going on here!

For the broken-hearted whilst tearing out the rest of you, Brannan’s distinctive, melancholy but sharp tenor may well soundtrack your next break-up. And the getting back together … Jay Brannan
