Brian Heywood is an Australian musician who plays live in both the Roots/Fusion genre and the
Rock/Pop world. As well as live performance, he also composes for live and video/film soundtracks,
produce and engineer for recordings in a variety of styles.
Specialising in edgy roots fusion music, previous work has received comments such as
"... aggressive, top notch fiddling set off by periodic guitar explosions." - Tom Nelligan,
Dirty Linen Magazine (USA), "Just when it seemed as if newer electric British roots bands
were getting thinner on the ground - Very welcome and very good." - fROOTS Magazine (UK) and
Steve Barnes Fairbridge Festival Artistic Director (Australia) - "... a rocking band -
I was delighted with the audience response."
Brian's orginal material draws on many sources from progressive, latin and blues rock of
the 70's to celtic and traditional material.
"Brian never ceases to amaze us. He is graced with a truly natural, intuitive feel
for our style of music and adds another dimension to our sound." - The Fox Hat
