Break Into Blossom [LP]

Kirby Brown was born Texan, shaped in the foothills of the Ozarks, propelled by the frenetic energy of New York City, and currently at home in Nashville. As Kirby is himself a synthesis of varied influences in juxtaposition, his songs in kind are a marriage of poetic observation and simple conversation - serious and at times playful meditations on what's behind the veil of our seemingly plain human experiences. Brown's new full-length record, Break Into Blossom is introduced by the plaintive lead single, "Ashes and Leaves." "I know that, like a stained-glass window, my songs are both many things and one thing simultaneously - what you see depends on where you're standing," Kirby says.
