Music - Brook Pridemore

These days, Brook believes in utopia, but they also believe in a world where everything goes wrong. In 2002, fate dragged them away from Detroit and onto the streets of New York City. Brook likes New York better than Detroit. Brook also likes singing and writing songs. Brook Pridemore plays punk music and folk music at the same time. Sometimes they bang on the guitar like it was a drum, and sometimes they jump up and down, cussing like a five year old who just learned how to say "Fuck." A firm believer in audience participation, and an avid record collector, Brook's lyrics are sing-alongable tales of love, drunkenness and living in Harlem. Their songs and their voice have been compared to Paul Simon, Frank Black, and David Dondero. Brook really likes Kosher food, but they're not Jewish. They're a Gemini, but they're also a Cancer. "
