Airless Alarm

About the Artist
Bril's debut album on Kirtland Records, "Airless Alarm," fulfills a promise of richly dynamic music that comes from a genuine collaboration of peers rather than commercial calculation. Truly, it's the culmination of a decade of friendship between these four musicians from San Clemente, California; singer--guitarist--keyboardist Dave Starr, guitarist Kris Winrich, bassist Scott Nelson and drummer Kelly Winrich.
Working with noted mixer Tim Palmer (U2, Pearl Jam), Bril has created a stunning blend of blistering, yet thoroughly tuneful sounds on Airless Alarm that draw upon the best of both the soul-searching found in American alternative music and the ever-expanding sonic landscapes of Brit-rock.
Named for the legendary New York songwriting building of the 1960s, a place synonymous with an approach to songwriting that changed the course of music, the group dropped one letter to become Bril. In a band just prior to their formation, singer - guitarist - keyboardist Dave Starr, guitarist Kris Winrich and bassist Scott Nelson found they needed a new man at the drum kit and they all knew who would be a perfect fit: Kris' younger brother Kelly. After all, he played with them on and off in the past in different groups and brought with him an unparalleled musical connection to the others which has been carried over effortlessly into the songwriting of Bril.
While Bril thrives on stage with captivating improvisation, the group never loses sight of what matters most: the songs. "We value each of the individual parts in the songs, and how they work for all of us," Kelly says. "But it's how they flow and come together for the song as a whole that really counts."

Excellent Album with great substance.......2006-04-29

I bought this album on a whim after hearing Bril perform live on Jimmy Kimmel. These are some cool cats from San Clemente, CA who almost sound like they'd be from New York or something. Anyways, sound is great, instrumentality is lively, the tracks vary in rhythm and theme, and lyrics are thoughtful. Very catchy tracks and melodies. Where is the marketing on this effort??? These guys should be selling tons of albums. Something to play in the car or at the house. Kick ass album. It will catch on....
