If you enjoy reading his thoughts on music here, then you might enjoy listening to his thoughts as music when our own Alex Brenner performs this Friday night as Swing Set.
Yes, the plug is gratutious, but we really only met Alex because we loved his music and started talking to him after a show at Star Bar a couple of years ago. It didn’t take long before we realized we had a little more in common than a love of music and the lyrical miracle. Really you don’t have to go to this show, but if you don’t you will miss one of the our city’s hidden secret songwriters and one of the few occasions when Alex plays out.
Alex will open the evening for Knoxville’s Robinella.
Just to get you interested, here’s a track from his full length, How to Make A Living Selling Yourself Short, that seems to make sense these days…
