Combining the intimacy of a piano based singer-songwriter with dark electronics and jazz harmonics: Brett Gleason's music has been called 'revolutionary' and garnered comparisons to a diverse array of artists like Trent Reznor, Tori Amos and Depeche Mode.
Created with a vow to play all instruments and self-produce every detail, his latest record, 'The Thawing' is an operatic set of new tracks both vulnerable and bleak. With an emphasis on a classical piano background and the addition of strings, this sophisticated sophomore effort is a seamless development of Brett's unique, layered sound.
From Brooklyn, NY by way of Long Island, Gleason released 'The Dissonance' in early 2010 with the 'I Am Not' video climbing to the top of MTV Logo's 'The Click List' for 20 weeks. Followed by the controlled chaos of ''Futile & Fooled' in 2011, Brett returned to the studio, not to emerge until early 2012 as the destroyer of 'Destruction'.
