about
Colin Bracewell is a Minneapolis-based singer/songwriter whose raw vocals and production reflect the work of Bon Iver, Novo Amor, and Billy Raffoul. He began writing during his time at a college prep high school and is now attending the University of Minnesota where he studies Vocal Performance and Business.
His latest single "Why" discovers a darker and nostalgic sound brought to you with the help of Thomas Abban. The tight and thick production from Abban contrasts with real instruments and vocals typically forged in Bracewell's tracks. The track includes Bracewell's vocal pads while combining love and loss with Abban's production to create authentic artistry.
During the summer of 2020, Bracewell reached out to Thomas Abban and worked with him to produce the single. Usually writing, recording, and producing on his own, this track pushed Bracewell to visit other realms of creativity while maintaining his authentic lyrics and melodies. The track was mixed and mastered by Joel Bruyere (Thousand Foot Krutch).
Colin Bracewell is currently working on his debut EP set for July 2021. Self-produced, the project offers reflection, intimacy, and youthfulness as he continues to grow as an artist in all forms.
lyrics
Why don't you listen, to me
so ashamed of what you've made me
can't recall why i'm upset and bruised
headspace in the wrong place
My god its aching for u
can't recall why i'm obsessed with you
Let me see it through
SO tell me why
So tell me why
You gotta let me know
Just gotta let me know
I don't understand why
I don't understand why
Please let me know
Or let me go
I don't know why we had to go but
Everything was so slow up
North where we could be ourselves
But everything was not ourselves
I don't know why u hideaway
From beach day or anyday
can you let it go….so.
i can see her
She's all cold up there
How to feel her touch
Upon Her ladder
I can see her
I can feel her scratching
Just to feel her touch
I love her so much.
