Description

"Texas-born singer, songwriter, and actor Jay Brannan's angelic voice and folky, acoustic approach may make him appear like a garden-variety contemporary singer/songwriter, but his musical sensibility brings him closer to hard-to-fit-in-a-box female artists like Ani DeFranco, Lisa Loeb, Sinead O'Connor, or Liz Phair, and he sounds nothing so much as a male version of Joni Mitchell at time. Brannan appeared as Seth in John Cameron Mitchell's 2006 film Shortbus and his song 'Soda Shop' was featured prominently in the film's soundtrack. Brannan released a limited-edition four-song EP called desasterpiece (it has aldo been listed as Unmastered) featuring 'Soda Shop' that same year, amending it with two additional songs for a second 2008 edition of didasterpiece in 2008. Later that year he finally released a full-length effort, goddamned."
