Press: Garett Brennan

"Garett Brennan takes you from the roots to the rafters, and all the way to the mountain top with his acoustic jungle folk rock, using a blend of backwoods harmonies and lyrics that make you wonder if he's quite serious or not. Song titles such as "Red Panties" and "Pancake Preacher" tell the tale of a rural route to the man's heart. He also wrote a song called "Lady of the Mountain," which he says is a "tune about a kick-ass vegan girl." Most of the pictures on his Web site reflect the singer's affinity for the higher peaks in life (he's a self confessed ski bum), but his affiliation with Clif Bar shows how down to earth he truly is. In the summer of 2005, Clif Bar teamed up the Utah-raised singer-songteller-poet in a national campaign called "Keep-it-Simple" to promote environmental responsibility. Also, one percent of his Little Cottonwood album sales benefit an organic farming research foundation based in Santa Cruz, Calif. That rocks."
