Rooted in the heart of the Texas Hill Country and raised on the rich tapestry of American roots music, Briscoe emerges as a rising Americana folk-rock band with a compelling story to tell. Their debut album, "West of It All," set to release on September 15th via ATO Records, is a coming-of-age soundtrack that explores the landscape of their Texas origins while embracing the modern evolution of this cherished genre. With a unique blend of classic and contemporary influences, Briscoe's music transports listeners to the rural countryside of Texas while maintaining a fresh, forward-looking sound.
The album, "West of It All," was crafted in the Lone Star State but found its recording home in North Carolina under the guidance of Grammy-nominated producer Brad Cook, known for his work with Bon Iver, Waxahatchee, and Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats. The result is an album that defies traditional musical boundaries, seamlessly blending elements of folk, rock, and pop. The first single, "The Well," is a rootsy, foot-stomping anthem that captures the essence of Briscoe's energy and passion. Meanwhile, the second single, "Sparrows," offers a glimpse into their storytelling prowess, accompanied by a mesmerizing music video.
Briscoe's journey began when they were signed by ATO Records while still undergraduates at the University of Texas at Austin. Drawing inspiration from their college experiences, the band weaves tales of heartbreak, life lessons, and adventures in the countryside into their music. Truett Heintzelman and Philip Lupton, the core members of Briscoe, are highly capable multi-instrumentalists who bring depth and authenticity to their songs. With acoustic guitars, plucky banjo, and harmonies that soar, they create a sound that nods to the golden era of folk and rock while embracing a modern sensibility.
