Sonny brazil
27 Year Old Sonny Brazil is a class act. Entrenched in the world of old folk song from the British Isles and the stories within, he lives on a boat, doesn't have WIFI and embodies the true essence a folk musician. Equally at home performing his own compositions or arranging versions of lost and forgotten folk song, Sonny's pure voice and immaculately meditative guitar performances are set to stun.
Sonny Brazil was born and raised in South East London, England, and now dwells wherever he is allowed to moor his narrowboat. After learning how to play an array of folk instruments from his Dad, he also ingested the music that inspired him to write and play in the homestead. Influences include Nic Jones, Leveret, Martin Simpson, Peter Bellamy and A.L. Lloyd. After writing some music for theatre in and around London and Brighton, Sonny now works on his own arrangements of lost and forgotten Folk songs from the British Isles which he records and produces himself, as well as writing his own songs, ‘Lost in The Fog’ being his first original composition set for release on 16th February 2022. ‘Two Crows’ and ‘Lost In The Fog’ are taken from Sonny’s debut EP ‘Darker Seasons’ set for release on 2nd March 2022.
