Been enjoying this guy's music a lot recently. His song Seasons recently blew up on TikTok and kinda gave him his big break. I had the honor of meeting him when I helped my friends produce a show for him and got to photograph him at said show (see pic below). He walked in and was so sweet to everyone helping out. It was so refreshing seeing someone so authentic in the music scene, given that his opener was lowk a douchebag... that's a story for later. ANYWAYS really recommend listening to his songs if you're into Imogen Heap, Blood Orange, or kinda electronic sound. Some of my favs are Seasons, Pretend Friend, and Say what you mean.

i’ve been a fan of briston for a little over 5 years now, and i’ve gotta say it’s been one of the best things to ever happen to me. i love his music, of course, but through his shows i have met some of my best friends and made some of my favorite memories. it actually hurts my brain to think about what my life would be like if i hadn’t gone to see him at the beast in 2022 - that show catapulted me into this need to go to more and more nashville indie shows. i could go on about it all for much longer, but i will spare you. it has been such a wild ride, and i can only hope that other people have similar stories with him (or other artists! please share if you do!). anywho, these are my top 3 tracks:
1. fool’s gold
2. the garden
3. i’ve been waiting
and this is a pic i took of him at iron city earlier this year

Blown away by his music. Got to see him live in LA a few weeks ago! The new album, Death Jokes, is great. It's like a fractured take on pop and electronic music. His voice is really unique and left of center. If you're looking for one of his more accessible records, start with Freedom, from 2018.

Stumbled upon him doing a show in Brooklyn last year and I have been thoroughly obsessed ever since. Think LCD Soundsystem meets John Grant meets Confidence Man meets Kendall Roy. My top 3 are: You Push, I'll Go, Breezy, Raid! but every single song is a massive bop

Why is this such a lost art? Bring together those friends that would never have met other wise. Make the people you love, love each other.
I recently had a small birthday wine n dine with my friends and anticipated awkwardness between my different groups of friends, but it was the complete opposite. God I love my friends and love making a space for them to mingle and laugh in eeeee. I think in a time where my friends and I are transitioning to adulthood and focusing on careers, this brings something to look forward to and a way to create a world outside of work and study.
