After six albums with Karma County, Brendan Gallagher ventures out into the everyday with his solo debut, rubbing shoulders with the characters who bounce along on the evening tide of urban life. On Eve St is a patchwork of these encounters - the fatally attracted odd couple on the move in 412, the fulminating soap boxer of Tidy Town, the laconic, contented daydreamer of The Majesty Of Song Reigning Supreme, the good-hearted ladies man in Cold Selling, the scotch & coke philosopher dispensing folksy wisdom at the end of the bar in Hymn For The 21st Century. There are detours into the church of McCartney/Lennonism, candles lit for veterans of melody Nick Lowe and ELO, homage paid to rhythm'n'rhyme touchstones Steely Dan. Sia rhythm section Felix Bloxsom (drums) and Sam Dixon (bass) put an oar in to propel Brendo to a new career high... On Eve St. First released in 2006 “Karma County front man Gallagher has crafted 12 songs with the virtuosity and maturity of a seasoned pro. The rich lyrics deal with the detail and broad brush strokes of a life lived somewhere on the fringes, while the music travels from multi-layered guitars to lush strings supported by a sure footed rhythm section led by Felix Bloxsom. Ably assisted by Jimmy Little, David McCormack, Charlie Owen and Lucky Oceans. A cut above the rest.” John Moyle, Leading Edge Magazine 2006 “Brendan Gallagher is our Australian Chris Isaac, minus the suit, haircut and abstract liberetto. Ok so the only similarity is that Brendan is super, super cool. It's not only the lyrical content, as in Karma County's Dexter & Sinestra, which oozes coolness, it's his vision for his music and his arrangements that make him so special. As his first solo album it becomes obvious this is not your average  'I can write a song and live in your street' kind of deal. Brendan has earned his stripes working with such folk as David Bowie, Kylie Minogue and Dave McCormack and really must I mention names? He's a skilled guitarist, credible songwriter and producer and it's a wonder he hasn’t released a solo album sooner. On Eve St is a patchwork of instruments layered together by one of those few blessed with musical ears.” Polly, Tsunami Magazine 2006
