Dave Brons
What would you get if you crossed guitarist Eddie Van Halen with composer John Williams?
“Dave Brons is an imaginative player with a great groove. I loved hearing his unique take on my music when we played together and look forward to hearing a lot more music from him”
Stu Hamm (Bassist for Steve Vai, Joe Satriani)
Music that will move you
In 2015 Dave took his album on a European Tour with Paul Bielatowicz (Carl Palmer Band) and Dave Bainbridge (IONA). Only two years earlier, Brons decided to quit his regular job and set out to create music that would marry the expressive potential of rock guitar with the epic sound of orchestral film music:
“I felt like something was missing in lot of the music that guitarists were putting out. To the average music listener, most instrumental guitar music sounds like morse code over a backing track, a mere showcase for the guitar players technical ability”.
Brons states, “I want the epic orchestral soundscapes and lyrical guitar melodies in my music to move the listener emotionally and transport them to the movie in their minds eye!”.
The album, Based on a True Story , has proved to be popular with musicians and non musician alike. Brons states that he always wrote with a view to the album becoming a soundtrack to peoples lives:
“The album has uplifting songs like ‘Kai Rohan’ and ‘ Star’, dark brooding cinematic tracks like ‘Drivin Rain’ right through to heart wrenching songs like, ‘Father’. The entire thread of the album is designed to tell a story that will connect with the listener emotionally”
