With soul-stirring melodies, wistful acoustic guitars and a knack for storytelling, alt folk-pop artist Brother Valiant is an important artist on the rise.
Inspired by folk legends new and old, from Paul Simon to Connor Oberst, Brother Valiant is a noble attempt to capture the magic that made these artists so iconic.
Much of Brother Valiant's sound is built around satirical lyricism, anthemic choruses and jangly guitars covering topics such as anxiety, love and fear with an authentic wit.
The latest release from the artist is the EP, Better Luck Next Time, which is a collection of songs all about accepting the imperfections in life.
Nothing is perfect. Nobody has it all figured out one hundred percent. But at the end of the day, we should embrace the journey we are on, and owe it to ourselves to find fulfillment along the way.- Brother Valiant
Featured on the EP is the single C'est La Vie
, an intoxicating dreamy indie folk track chronicling trying to make big changes for someone you care about.
The premise of the song is accepting that deep down, to an extent, we are always going to have certain qualities and quirks that we cannot change about ourselves,
The EP Better Luck Next Time is available through all streaming platforms.
