"..a certain nocturnal intimacy with a voice that's dark and wistful and haunted--sort of a Chet Baker meets Ry Cooder as they take Robbie Robertson for all he's worth in some Louisiana pool hall dive." Dakota Lane
Bio / Background
Just back from an Australian Tour Colin is hard at work on his next record tentatively titled "Water In The Sky". It is due out mid summer 05 and will be accompanied by a release of the more naked and intimate demos of old and new songs.
"Colin Brooks from Austin Texas was moodily magnificent in two gigs at The Troubadour. These were the highlight of the festival for me. Only Jeff Lang five years ago had a similar effect." Woodford Folk Festival 04/05 The Fly, Cairns Australia
Colin is one of the Kerrville New Folk Winners of 2003
Colin Brooks communicates his tales with a dark and wistful voice that is at once both intimate and powerful, creating a hypnotic and nocturnal sound that is very much his own. He is also an accomplished guitar player, who can make his steel-body dobro sound deceptively graceful while still attacking it with his heavy brass slide.
His songwriting talents are already garnering him notice.
