"Top 12 Debut Albums of 2004" --Paste Magazine

Product Description

In 2004 the Brindley Brothers signed to Paste Records and released Playing With the Light to overwhelming response from critics and fans. The Washington Post called it "Magical...near perfect...a pop/rock gemm...a superb bid for any top ten list...an early contender for one of the best albums of 2004." Paste Magazine named it one of the Top 12 Debut Records of 2004 (alongside Franz Ferdinand, Jem, and more). Rolling Stone said, "Fans of Wilco and Gin Blossoms will swoon." The Brothers sold several thousand copies of Playing With the Light, received incredible press, toured extensively, appeared on numerous radio and television programs and began selling out clubs regionally and playing some of the best venues on the east coast. The record was on the in-store playlist for Abercrombie and Fitch and other national stores in Summer 2005.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is Great Stuff!, November 18, 2005

This review is from: Playing With the Light (Audio CD)

After finishing this amazing album, I couldn't help but conclude that if songs like "playing with the light" or "supernova" got airplay on popular radio stations, the brindley brothers would be huge. "playing with the light" is such a nice, laid-back pop CD that's can be played over and over again. The vocals are wonderful, the music is diverse and catchy; its just fun to listen to. which is what music should be like.

so head to the brindley brothers website and download some samples, just find a way to hear it! if you're also interested, check out luke brindleys solo work, its just as good. oh and heres the track list!

1. Playing With the Light
2. Roman Candle
3. Crazy One
4. Slow Burn
5. Hudson River
6. Supernova
7. Harder, Easier, Better
8. Evergreen
9. Breakdown

I am crazy about this album. I listen to it over and over again -- loving it every time I hear it. These guys rock! They should win a Grammy for this album!

The Brindley Brothers are amazingly talented! Luke Brindley has a beautiful voice, and the tracks, some co-written by Luke and Daniel Brindley are just gorgeous! Personal favourite tracks on "Playing With The Light" are "Roman Candle", "Hudson River", "Harder, Easier, Better", "Supernova" and the title track "Playing With The Light". Since buying this cd it hasn't left my stereo. If you get the chance to see them live - don't miss it!!! They rock!!!
