Jay Brannan
Lineup: Jay BrannanA Texas native turned New Yorker, Jay Brannan has been writing and performing his
own sweet & sad folk songs, tempered with a healthy dose of humor, around the globe
since 2006.
He also appeared as an actor in John Cameron Mitchell’s indie film sensation Shortbus,
in which his song “Soda Shop” was the highest selling song on the film’s soundtrack
album (released by Bright Eyes’ Team Love Records).
From there, Brannan released a string of albums, all of which topped the iTunes
Singer/Songwriter & Billboard Heatseekers charts: goddamned, produced by Will
Golden (Meiko, Michelle Branch); In Living Cover, a collection of 2 originals & 7 covers,
recorded from a bedroom in his friend Drew Brody’s Brooklyn apartment; and Rob Me
Blind, produced by the legendary David Kahne (Regina Spektor, The Bangles, Paul
McCartney, Kelly Clarkson, Lana Del Rey, etc.).
Brannan’s touring has taken him multiple times around the world, through the USA,
Canada, the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal,
Sweden, Norway, Greece, Brazil, South Africa, Israel, and Australia. This international
touring is what inspired his 2013 EP release Around the World in 80 Jays, a collection of
9 international cover songs spanning 6 different languages.
Brannan returns to the road (and sky) this summer to promote his new album of
acoustic originals, entitled Always, Then, & Now (available July 15).
