| | Brooke Trout Networth CD Brooke Trout Discography of CDs
Brooke Trout's signature polyphonic mix of punk, blues and ska returns with her second album Networth (Empire Recording Studio) featuring mixing engineer Chuck Wilson (Andre 3000, Dr. Dre, Rihanna) and mastering by Grammy Award winner Nancy Matter (The Who, Ray Charles). The album was recorded live between two bands, The Treble Hooks & The Anchor Men, capturing a sound that has been compared to X-Ray Spex, Dead Kennedys, Siouxsie and The Banshees, Mr. Bungle and X. Networth is the follow up to Brooke Trout's debut alternative new wave album Bittersweet (SoftEgg Studios, 2007). The album achieved airplay on several radio stations and podcasts, as well as positive reviews in the press where Trout was compared to alternative artists like Souixsie Souix, Exene Cervenka and Sinead O'Connor. Brooke Trout was nominated for All Access Magazine's 2007 Music Award Show for best female guitarist in a rock, melodic blues category, best female guitarist in a pop, alternative category and best songwriter. In 2008 Brooke Trout was made a Member of the Month for singer/songwriter organization Songsalive!. Networth is a contrapuntal play with genre; shifting from the the dirty grunge of the title track to the rockabilly jazz synthesis of Mine. Brooke's bittersweet returns with the haunting Tom Waits inspired harmonica stylings of Hades & Persephone and the ska-polka of Compartmentalized Life. Lyrically this is a concept album. The economic crisis becomes an introspection on the value of life, love and self-worth. As a follow up to Bittersweet's scathing satire, Suburban Cocktail, the title track continues to scorch, 'I don't swear by the name of the Lord who you shame with the blame and blood and wine and love in vain/And the screams and the dreams and the reams of the right and the light and the sight you see obscures the truth from you. ' The follow up to Bittersweet's Roller Coaster Lover is the provocative blues jam Get Lucky that compares sex to gambling, "Your mind like a spinning wheel roulette game/Your cards down your chips have fallen off the table/You think that you've won but I'ma set you straight/I'm a winning bet/So put it all in me/I'll help you forget/I'll break your losing streak/If you put all you have on me." The album is already getting great reviews in the press and from fans: "This chick's Lene Lovich styled vocal delivery is pretty cool. The twangy guitars in the breakdown are tasteful & well done. It's a creative blend of twang, punk, new wave & god know what else...This is something that would've easily fit into the London punk underground back in 1980 or so. This is retro cool & I have no doubt there's an audience for these cats..."- Garageband review of title track by SIIN from Crawfordsville, Indiana "Here she comes again, swimming into our speakers with a quirky perk that defies strict categorization...Many have noted that Brooke has affection for a ska-ish tempo...accented by her trademark vocal antics, including squeaks, chirps and trills... In the title track, Brooke channels a taste of Alanis Morissette with her biting lyrics, but the voice is all her own....And as for her overall aquatic-themed approach - goodness-gracious, how many liquid metaphors and piscatorial puns can one woman haul on board? Brooke Trout will make you chuckle while you ponder and appreciate her wit and insight." -Rob Swick, All Access Magazine, Los Angeles, CA. 'You did a great job on this album (Networth). Dear John was my favorite track but overall I really appreciated how all the participating musicians seemed to really lean into their parts. The live quality comes across like a cool summer time jam around a campfire...' -DJ Nette of Nette Radio, Los Angeles, CA "I LOVE your new CD. I have been listening to it in my car. You did an awesome job. First off, the presentation rocks, the artwork and design are great! The production is fantastic too, it sounds really awesome. I like your new style and your lyrics are very prof Brooke Trout Networth Songs | 1. | Compartmentalized Life - Brooke Mason |

About the CD "The City of My Dreams": "Initial impressions indicate a strong, very engaging and creative musician with excellent arrangements. Congratulations! You are clearly an artist of enormous talent and intelligence. I am admiring your artistry."- Michael Haas, Producer -London ( Haas has worked with Luciano Pavarotti, Berlin Philharmonic, Simon Rattle & Claudio Abaddo etc ) ."A stunningly multi-talented one-woman-army of singer, composer, painter and inventive arranger, equally capable of creating slow-dance mantras as well as brusquely avantgardistic vaudeville-style Lieder".-Tobias Fischer, Tokafi"A multifaceted, fascinating singer and a witty self confident composer and sophisticated arranger. Her flexible voice is well suited either to sing Brechtian songs or Hollywood musicals and able to get nordic nocturnal moods, agile vocalise and Hendrix-inspired rhythms. Always with great confidence and extreme dexterity moving from very high registers to almost guttural sounds, keeping good care of swing and melody. " -Vincenzo Roggero, All About Jazz Italia."This exceptional Swedish artist is not only a vocal virtuoso in the delivery of the 17 pieces she composed, set the text, and arranged on this exhilarating album—she is also an outstanding talent, whose emphatic and thoughtful impression in the future of contemporary music, jazz, and song comes around very rarely. Sophie Dunér has attained the most unattainable, namely, to be at eye level with Kurt Weill, Lennon/McCartney, Gordon Sumner, Ricky Lee Jones and Kate Bush." -Frank Becker, Musenblätter. "Between Kronos and Krause. Her vocal equilibrities and her capability to switch between different styles makes her one of the most interesting singers in our country.The voice rattles , falls to later catch itself in the higher register. It throws itself into black holes in between stones and rocks and spreads itself in thin ribbons of waves"- Guido Zeccola, ...
