Brad Peterson discloses “the unknown album”
From the woods near Lake Michigan, the ever-acroamatic Brad Peterson writes and records in a hand-constructed garden shed studio. In a few Google-minutes, one may learn Brad’s curious history of shared stages with Jeff Buckley and Radiohead, his injury that left him partially paralyzed, and the rousing comeback from a forced retirement.
Just a few months after the release of “The Ellipsis Album”, which has garnered millions of views and streams, adds to hundreds of radio stations, and favorable reviews, comes a new record: “the unknown album” available worldwide on all platforms.
“The Ellipsis Album” is available on Amazon, Apple Music, and Spotify.
Who’s this Brad Peterson, when he’s at home?
Brad Peterson is an indie-singer-songwriter from a wooded area near Lake Michigan north of Chicago. There, he built a little back-yard garden shed – where he writes and records his songs. He has shared stages with Jeff Buckley and Radiohead, but stopped making music after a spinal injury left him unable to record or perform for several years…
All work is written, recorded, and produced solely by Brad in his garden shed.
