| | Brokus / Patton Plans Gang Aft Agley CD Brokus / Patton Discography of CDs
Jim Patton & Sherry Brokus combine wall of sound vocal interplay with Jim Patton’s heartfelt, character driven songs. Originally from Baltimore, they now live in Austin, Texas, have CDs produced by Lloyd Maines and Bradley Kopp, and have just recorded an acoustic album with Ron Flynt for release later this year. In Patton’s recent songs, a man discovers alternate definitions of success; a daughter waits in a bar for the father who walked out on her years ago; a father tells his child not to make the same mistakes he did; a brave woman breaks free of an abusive past; people fall in love; relationships end; relationships endure.Patton cites 20th century American fiction (“from Fitzgerald and Hemingway and Faulkner to Kerouac and Salinger and Raymond Chandler”) and the various lives of the friends he grew up with in Maryland (“I knew doctors and lawyers and waitresses and teachers and water rats and gravediggers and the guy who drove the truck that emptied the port-o-pots all over the state”) as the main source of his lyrical inspiration. Patton and Brokus have sung together for over twenty five years, and confess to listening to a lot of “Richard & Linda Thompson, the Byrds, the Airplane, the Everly Brothers, and Emmy Lou Harris singing with Bob Dylan” when they started, before they took off in a direction “that’s pretty much our own”. Patton and Brokus’ new CD steps away from the full band sound of their previous CDs to make an album that reflects the kind of sound they make as a duo or trio when they play in acoustic settings like the Cactus in Austin, Eddie’s Attic in Atlanta, Anderson Fair in Houston, the Bluebird in Nashville, Uncommon Ground in Chicago, or house concerts from Bar Harbor to Baltimore.

| | Kevin So Leaving The Lights On: A Day In The Life Of Victor CD (2008)
Plans Gang Aft Agley
$25.29 A 32 track double CD. My Asian American "Songs In The Key Of Life" - my "Kwan-drophenia." Influences: Stevie Wonder, Springsteen, Tupac, Michael Jackson, Tom Waits, Marvin Gaye - with a little bit of Richard Pryor thrown in. Confronting identity, sexuality, history, family, and racism. It took me over 2 years to complete this. A day in the life of Victor Woo - my alter ego I suppose. "I guess to know where you're going, you must remember where you're coming from." A artistic response to my Dad's sudden passing in 2000."This is an EPIC MASTERPIECE." -iTUNESabout KEVIN SO ..."Kevin So is beginning to do for young Asian-Americans what Woody Guthrie did for Dust Bowl refugees and Bob Dylan for the '60s generation. Carving his songs from sweet r&b, hot rock, hip-hop, and folk-pop, he presents his life and times in brash strokes of insight, all underscored by a deeply felt pride in being both Asian and American."That's what Scott Alarik of the Boston Globe says about Kevin So, one of the most exciting and powerful singer/songwriters to emerge from the Boston music scene. In a decade of performing his original music around the country, Kevin So has earned the respect of his fellow musicians (Keb’ Mo’ and Amos Lee, for starters), won over members of the press and radio (the Boston Globe, WFUV, many more) and built up a substantial fan base coast to coast. With the sky still the limit, he has spent more than 15 years giving free rein to his musical imagination.Born and raised in Boston, So channeled his early passion for singing and playing piano and guitar into the start of a career in music with his appearance, in 1990, on a nationally broadcast Fox show hosted by Natalie Cole called “Big Break.” In 1994, So toured the country as a member of a pop/r&b cover band that later had some of its musicians moving on to Britney Spears’ band. When not playing keyboards with the group, he spent a considerable amount of time listening to the recorded music of Bob Dylan early in his career and to the Delta blues of Robert Johnson.By 1995, So had quit the cover band and was a regular on the open-mic folk scene in Boston. His strong musicianship and natural showmanship as a solo singer-songwriter caught the attention of Boston Globe pop critic Steve Morse — who wrote that Kevin was “unusually talented.” The next year, Kevin took to the interstates for his first road work. At the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas, an Austin Chronicle’s music writer took notice, writing that So was “the big discovery.” The release of Kevin’s first full length CD, Pendulum, in the same year signaled the arrival of a top-flight storyteller who kept ...
