Listen to The Red Album
Current Project:
"The Red Album", Like Picasso's "Blue Period", is a collection of works -suffused with bright-warm tones intended to create intense and heady imagery. One might compare Red's production to records of the late-sixties renaissance such as Revolver, Pet Sounds, or Odyssey & Oracle without betraying its originality. Grammy award winner and member of Keith Richards' band, John Pirruccello lends his talents to the project. Remarkably, Brad claims this effort was partially inspired by being directly hit by lightning and the ensuing thirty-nine week coma.
Previous Work:
BP has recorded and performed in Peatmoss and solo projects -achieving high-ranking positions in CMJ charts. He has also shared the stage and microphone with: Jeff Buckley, Cake, David Lowery, Alanis Morissette, Dave Matthews, & Wallflowers.
