London-based Dubliner **Louis Brennan** is a singer-songwriter in the folk tradition.
His folk however aren’t the field hands and travelling minstrels of yore but the
repressed middle managers and ennui-ridden urbanites of late-stage capitalism.
They populate tales of bad sex, half-drunk commutes and interpersonal
claustrophobia delivered in Brennan’s cracked baritone, at times embarrassingly
intimate, at times spuriously broad, peppered with pitch-black humour.
Brennan’s debut album Dead capital was released in 2018 and describe by
Americana Uk as “an outstanding album” deep, dark and demanding of
attention" It garnered favourable comparisons to Kris Kristofferson, Guy Clark and
Leonard Cohen.
