Easy Morning by Jet Brennan
posted on march 28th 2007 by matt mccally
From across the pond comes this gem from Jet Brennan. Reminiscing of a lost love on a perfect summer morning, Jet really pours his heart out into the song. With intricate guitar work and a very soothing voice this song just makes you want to sit back on your porch with a lawn chair and relax. This Irish artist has really hit the nail on the head with what music is supposed to be about and I can't wait for more of his work to surface.

Bio
Guitarist and singer/songwriter Jet Brennan is a graduate of the School of Bars and Busking. Uncompromisingly plain but never simple, his songs are delivered in a stripped down style with a Celtic lilt. From a Scots/Irish background, Jet grew up to the sounds of Irish airs, Scottish reels and pipe bands. Originally a drummer he switched to guitar at fifteen. Moving to England in his late teens, Jet made a living playing rhythm guitar in local bands with a covers repertoire of Neil Young, Steve Earle, John Prine etc. He discovered a knack for writing songs that people enjoyed hearing and branched out as a solo artist, touring Ireland and Scotland on foot (quote - "I don't do driving!"). In 1996 Jet won the UK Voice of the Year contest, breaking with tradition by performing his own composition, Easy Morning, rather than a cover song. The song attracted attention and led to a performance on BBC Radio's Folk on Two as well as local radio stations. Over the past few years, Jet has concentrated on writing new material and armed with his trusty Martin, headed out on the road to test out the new songs. Jet's song, Cruel Coincidence, is an uptempo fingerstyle guitar plus vocal, that had audiences dancing and chanting the chorus when he first roadtested the song in Brittany! His latest track, Hashish to Ashes, a fingerpicked slow tempo country number, has been described as a three handkerchief production! The song has just reached the semifinals of the 2007 UK Songwriters competition!
