Bio
Brian Hindman is from Lewisville, TX and has been writing songs for about 15 years. Sometimes collaborating with other songwriters/musicians, but often, Brian does everything himself (from writing the lyrics to arranging/recording the music). Brian is an unusual songwriter/performer, putting folk and/or classical instruments in a rock setting (mandolin/banjo/opera singer). He can be highly experimental, but he also pays a lot of attention to the lyrics and tries to reach a state of poetry with them.
Here's an insightful quote from Brian about his songwriting craft, "Many songs on the radio these days suffer from underdeveloped 'plot'. By plot, I mean the song builds continuously and slowly gives moments of clarity until the climax (lyrically speaking). Many songs these days just seem to be a bag of adjectives and pretty words that, well, don’t take the listener on a wonderful journey, stimulating the brain and heart (with music to match)."
Here's another quote from Brian about what sets his music apart from the crowd:
"One thing that sets my music apart is the willingness and drive to experiment and the ear to know when it works and when it doesn’t. I think most listeners want to hear something new and fresh (not relying on the same old gimmicks and styles). I’m also not afraid to tackle difficult subjects lyrically."
