Brian is equally capable of delivering a captivating performance as a soloist, with a full band or as a trio with backing tracks.  On tour he will do any or all of those, depending on the venue and opportunity.

Examples of performances are in the next section.

Brian's full band includes five members -- electric guitar, drums, bass, sax and himself on vocals and keyboards.  As a soloist he performs alone at his piano, or he can perform with backing tracks, his guitarist and saxophone player for a slightly fuller sound.

The Midwestern Gothic Storybook Tour is a proud DIY operation!  Contact Brian by email or DM.

Album Highlights (in 2 minutes)

BIO

A creator to his core, Brian Bacon’s timeless, dressed up style of folk rock forges the mythical from the commonplace. His first album, “Twigs”, was released in 2022. Described as “a testament to my love of the classic three-minute-long pop song” and notable for its powerful orchestrated ballads and piano-driven, melody-forward gems like “Pull the Weight” (which received airplay on local independent radio stations across Northeast Ohio), “Twigs” laid the groundwork for the more sophisticated, story-focused songs on his second album, “Murder of Crows”.

 

At age 50, the Midwestern US songwriter left Cleveland, Ohio where he had lived for over 20 years raising daughters, and moved into a tiny home in Nashville to record his sophomore album with a producer he met on Instagram. Heralded by a sold-out release party show in Cleveland, the release of “Murder of Crows” finds Brian and his band growing to larger stages (like Cleveland’s “IngenuityFest” which draws 15,000 people each year) and touring regionally with stops in 5 states in the U.S.
