Bio
My Good Eye is the latest creative incarnation for husband and wife songwriting duo Brooke Fox and Kurt Gellersted from Brooklyn, NY.
Fox, who has released two independent albums of acoustic pop songs, spent much of the last five years playing shows all over the country. Her music, which is often compared to artists Patty Griffin and Ricky Lee Jones, has garnered several songwriting awards and has been heard on XM and NPR Radio.
Gellersted has played drums in several Chicago bands, written choral requiems and found recent success creating music for television and film. His “So Bizarre” main theme can now be heard on "Bizarre Foods" on the Travel Channel.
My Good Eye marks a definite shift in sound for Fox and Gellersted, drawing influence from electro, dreamy rock music by Bat for Lashes, Depeche Mode, Imogen Heap, Postal Service, The Cocteau Twins, Death Cab For Cutie, Stars, The Cure and Portishead.
Fox and Gellersted had only collaborated loosely as a pop duo before they were invited to write a song for a horror film directed by Charles Band (Puppetmaster, Troll). The scene called for a trancelike “Zero-7” vibe. Gellersted’s production savvy and quick ear for melody met Fox’s ethereal voice and detail for lyric. That song “Disassemble You” set the tone for a collection of new material the duo is currently recording in their Williamsburg, Brooklyn studio.
My Good Eye has performed in several clubs in NYC including Annex and Laila Lounge.
