Mutt

Description

Cory Branan is like a particular breed of bad boyfriend never around when you need him, wildly inconsistent with his emotions, arrogant, vulnerable, quixotic, brilliant and, of course, ultimately irresistible. Nashville Scene

Cory has a well-documented history with groups like former label mates Lucero, musicians of his ilk who trend toward the rawer end of roots music (The Loved Ones Dave Hause, Chuck Ragan, Two Cow Garage, Drag the Rivers Jon Snodgrass), and rock stars like Chris Carrabba (Dashboard Confessional), who has covered Corys gorgeous Tall Green Grass and been a reoccurring tour mate.

And that touring element was just the icing on the cake for us. Never one to shy away from an itinerary of non-stop cross-country shows, Cory possesses a unique performance style that enables him to gravelly sing a coy double entendre in one ear of the audience, while yelling the most beautiful love song into the other. So after falling in love (!!!) with a demo of his new material, we jumped at the chance to add him to the fold.
