歌手简介

简介：Bradfield leaves no stone unturned in his quest for unequivocal expression. Seemingly each and every fleeting thought finds its way into his poetic musical landscapes, places where everything is in reach and all seems possible. His intentions are crystal clear, constantly striving to create "timecapsules of catharsis for the human spirit," but there is much in him that exudes contradiction. He is a classically trained pianist who despises conformity, a relentless deviant who espouses uniformity. His approach is one of thoroughness, precision and sometimes brutal candor. His execution: a spontaneous yet methodical course that can veer in any direction to best achieve this end.

From the age of 4, he studied piano with the Royal Conservatory of Music (Toronto), during which time he competed and placed often in the Ottawa Music Festival. Stories recall how even then, he would be reprimanded for playing his own parts instead of the written score. At 14, he would finally shake the grip of formal training and stop playing completely for almost a year, before slowly coming back to the piano on his terms. His first original compositions and prose would soon follow. In the ensuing years, he would teach himself both arrangement and production, adding yet more dimension to his creative arsenal, and rounding out his capacity for much sought after "complete, unencumbered expression."
