about

If Amy Winehouse and Ryan Adams had a baby boy and he was sitting in your living room singing songs just for you, this is what it would sound like...

It's been almost 10 years since Kevin Allred's last album, and "Brave (Songs: 2005-2012)" marks an intimate and triumphant return to music for Allred. These songs were recorded in his home studio and are meant to sound like Allred is playing these songs for you right in your living room.

"I get so sick of the overproduced music that dominates the radio, so I wanted to make something simple and true - songs that sometimes have imperfections and that will hopefully make you feel something," says Allred of the new recording.

For Always (Single) - 2012
