“Bronson has
soaked up all the best parts of ‘70s rock and created his own vibe. Captivating.” – MAGNET
NYC-based singer-songwriter David Bronson is currently putting the finishing touches on what
will be his first album of all-new material in ten years. Working once again with Lou Reed producer Godfrey
Diamond, Bronson’s as-yet-untitled new collection will be made extra
special by some of the guests that will appear on the recordings, including
vocalist Robin Clark and guitarist Carlos Alomar.
Bronson excitedly explains, “Robin is famously one of the voices of David Bowie’s ‘Young
Americans” and Carlos was the
guitarist on some of Bowie’s biggest
hits, including ‘Young Americans,’ ‘Heroes,’
and ‘Fame,’ which he co-wrote with Bowie and John Lennon. Benefitting from Godfrey’s
decades of experience, this new album has been done in a very different manner
than the first two,” Bronson says of
the new material, which follows-up 2013’s “The
Long Lost Story,” comprised of two separate albums (Story and The
Long Lost) that were recorded a decade earlier, but hidden until last
year due to the painful nature of the content. “The new album is very far
along, and sound-wise, it’s a whole different thing, a real evolution from ‘The Long Lost Story’ and the first
music I’ll be putting out that’s contemporaneous with my actual life.”
The Cat Stevens
and Harry Chapin-evoking songs on “The Long Lost Story” earned the
attention of influential music discovery publications such as MAGNET,
Under
The Radar, Baeblemusic,
American
Songwriter, and My Old Kentucky Blog
last year, and Bronson is set to
make good on that with the new material.
He’ll debut acoustic versions of a handful of the new songs as part of
his first Daytrotter session, taping
on March 6th, the same day that he’ll launch a string of tour
dates. See below for full itinerary.
When Bronson
isn’t writing and recording his solo material, he can be found working as a
contributing composer and editor on filmmaker Jennifer Elster’s “The Being
Experience.” The project is an
unflinching look at existence, featuring a cast of actors, thinkers, and
musicians including Dave Matthews, Moby, Questlove, Rufus Wainwright,
and Yoko Ono among many others.
