Debut Album “Put Down” out now.

Listen Now

Ky J. Brandes’ debut album Put Down expands upon the introspective, fever-dream-like world he began shaping on Since I Left Amarillo. Across fourteen tracks, Put Down greets the listener with a kaleidoscopic mix of folk-rock, indie-twang, and singer-songwriter. From the distorted drive of “Rubber Pawn” and the bluegrass lift of “The Half of It” to the lo-fi intimacy of “Strung Out Dog” and the plucky folk of “Broken Beak,” Put Down showcases a new level of versatility and sonic exploration for the artist. With this diversity in pacing and mood, the album feels akin to flipping through a close friend’s photo book of memories.
