Brandi Carlile (b. June 1, 1981, in Ravensdale, Washington) is an American singer and songwriter. Carlile’s music has been categorized in several genres, including pop, rock, alternative country, and folk.
Columbia Records signed Carlile in late 2004 on the strength of songs she’d been recording periodically at home. Released in 2005, Brandi Carlile showcased those early songs along with several newly recorded tracks. Shortly after the release of Brandi Carlile, she left her home in Seattle and set out with the Hanseroth brothers, with whom she’d worked on her earliest recordings and independent regional tours. The tightly knit trio, which forms the core of her band today, spent the better part of two years on the road honing the songs that would later become part of her album “The Story”.
In 2005, she was featured on Rolling Stone’s “10 Artists to Watch in 2005” list. By the end of 2006, Carlile had embarked on several headlining tours and supported a variety of artists including Ray LaMontagne, The Fray, Chris Isaak, Tori Amos, and Shawn Colvin.
Her second album, The Story, was released in April 2007. It was produced by T Bone Burnett and includes a collaboration with the Indigo Girls on “Cannonball.” The album was recorded in an eleven-day-long session with Carlile , the twins (Tim and Phil Hanseroth) and drummer Matt Chamberlain to capture the raw intensity of Carlile’s live performances. The crack in Carlile’s vocals during the title track, “The Story”, came out by accident and was a direct result of the way the album was recorded. Carlile herself describes the vocals as “technically wrong but emotionally right.”

I actually prefer the second side to the first but 'pride and joy' is a great song indeed.

Pride & Joy makes my hair stand on air. Beautiful song, beautiful album. <3 So need to see her live! Thanks for the mini-review Rakki-san! :D

I should add that this applies more to the first 'side' than to the second..maybe they were remastered separately.

sillygirlNL wrote:
Too bad she succumbed to the loudness trend with her last album...the new album has more of that characteristic tinny and noisy sound, because the dynamic range is so low. This noise and distortion does not accentuate her (beautiful) voice well. I stil love her anyway, but her previous albums were exceptions to the rule with wonderful production and relatively high dynamic range, and I was hoping for the same with this one. Anyway, the music is great :-)

Saw her live the other day. She was so amazing, with Amy Ray as the opener. Cute too!!! She came out first with a leather jacket and skinny jeans--opened the song with a great a cappella...really wonderful. Cover of "Creep" and some Beatles songs, as well as Johnny Cash, new material and old. Closed with The Story, everyone screaming along. Amazing. If you get the chance, see her live!! The twins playing the guitars are really fucking fantastic. They give such an edge for her soft voice to play off.
