pins and needles

"Bray is undefeated in the originality category." Zero Magazine "Bray's musical persona screams STAR." Delfin Vigil, San Francisco Chronicle "Bray's CD is one of the best recordings I've heard. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he lands a recording contract." Aaron Axelson, Music Director, Live 105 FM, San Francisco "Charismatic and powerful. Bray and his band blow the doors off the joint! He's radio ready with plenty of hits as well." Dr. Fink (keyboardist, Prince and the Revolution) "(Pins and Needles) moves with an aggressive vivacity of a live show or a one night stand. It's raw. It's sexy. And it's geared for a good time." Robbie Salapuddin, The Owl Mag "Hard-Hitting bass and drum grooves backing a three guitar attack of raw tones all circling around gritty soulful vocals" Joe Rock, 107.7 FM, San Francisco ***************** Bray explodes onto the scene with driving grooves, irresistible magnetism, and pure primal energy. First you'll be struck with his arresting sound. jagged guitar driven grooves shot through with addictive hooks and razor sharp lyrics. Gritty and seductive, cutting edge rock with a disarming pop sensibility. Next, if you're lucky enough to see him live, you'll see that Bray is an amazing performer. A natural superstar who whips his audience into a lusty, sweat-soaked, shout-along, honest-to-goodness rock and roll frenzy. In 2005, Bray was featured on the Sundance Film Festival DVD compilation and on the soundrack of San Francisco Film Festival documentary feature, "Blood, Sweat, and Glitter." Then a wildly successful tour in France, including dates at the world famous House of Live in Paris and the Festival des Musiques in Champagne. Upon return to the US in 2006, sold out shows at San Francisco's hottest venues (Slim's) and a performance at the Recording Academy's Tribute to SF Music (Warfield) where he shared the stage with a host of legends including Camp Freddy (Scott Weiland, Slash) and Joe Satriani. With recent performances at the annual Grammy showcase (SF Chapter) and SXSW (Austin, TX), and an upcoming European tour including Popkomm (worldwide music festival in Berlin), Bray will soon be a household name.
