Isaiah B Brunt

Here's a cat with a wild life story and a wild resume and after all this time, he's finally come out with his first recording under his own name and it's wild stuff. Sounding like an earnest Boston kid in the 60s trying to sound like a Texas bluesman, Brunt slings a mighty slide guitar and recalls something Dick Waterman or Sam Charters would have produced for Vanguard back in the day. Sounding very much like something that could have spun off Koerner Ray and Glover, if that's your sound this is up your alley. Whether you can dig the sound and vibe or not, this is one killer set. - Midwest Record Entertainment

Brunt manages to sound both ancient and modern at the same time. I could hear songs like “Pathway Home” or “Great Ocean Blues” (about the 2009 tsunami that struck American Samoa) easily being from 70 or 80 years ago.

Based on those tracks, it’s obvious that Brunt is also a gifted composer. He proves it further on tracks like “Shadowy Place,” which was written about a close friend who suffers from bi-polar disorder, and “Ain’t No Rolling Stone,” a tribute to his mother, and “Whispers in My Head,” dedicated to his wife.
The only issue I have with this CD is that it’s not long enough. I would love to hear more from Isaiah B. Brunt as soon as possible. After you hear this EP, you probably will, too.

All of the tunes on the six song disc were written by Brunt, based on personal experience. An exceptional guitarist, harp player and vocalist, Isaiah Brunt delivers some of the best stuff I've heard in a while. Very well played and well arranged, this EP is a wonderful teaser…laid back, straight-ahead blues that aims straight for the heart and hits the spot every time. This is one of those pieces I could put on the player and allow to repeat all day and never get tired of it. Isaiah Brunt may be fairly new to the blues scene, but he has all the tools he needs and he knows how to use them. This disc may be only six tunes long but every one of them is a winner. - Bill Wilson - Pennsylvania Visitors Network

For decades Isaiah has been a top Aussie production guy and studio owner who's worked with Julio Iglesias and his orchestra, the Goo Goo Dolls and rehearsed American Idol's Randy Jackson and his band for their Australian touring. Not only has Isaiah been behind the board for globally upper echelon bands, he's been a go-to sideman for bands touring down under like the time he hit the road in Sydney aiding Keanu Reeves band Dog Star.



All the while he was working with synthetic and packaged music, Isaiah always knew where his heart lay. The same place it was when he first heard his father strum the Ukulele, blow harmonica and unleash the lap steel.



Isaiah was the 2010 Sydney Blues Society Performer of the Year and some of you may have caught him at last year's IBC. Probably the best dressed cat in Memphis and good enough musically to be one of the very few to be reviewed
