About this product

SYML is the solo venture of artist Brian Fennell. Welsh for InchsimpleInch-he makes music that taps into the instincts that drive us to places of sanctuary, whether that be a place or a person. Born and raised in Seattle, Fennell studied piano and became a self-taught producer, programmer, and guitarist.Says Fennell about his album Nobody Lives Here, InchWe change, the world changes, and there is so much unknown. About a year ago I started writing songs that represent the change that is happening in front of my face, a group that have emerged to become the third SYML album. Many of these songs are about getting older, and the intimate, and sometimes frightening, passing of time. Some are about how getting older revolves around looking forward to things happening, and when they don't happen, or they feel different than anticipated, we can be left with surprise and sadness. I'm actually reminded of this watching my 2 year old! We learn to live with disappointment.I recorded some of these songs with kids and dogs making noise in the background, and others in silent studios with musicians I've listened to and admired for many years. These songs are meant to be pieces of clothing to wear as you need (or I need). Some are bright and bold and others are gentle, but they were all made with a sense of comfort in mind, even when things feel bleak. My wife jokes that when our friends hear some of these songs, they might think we are not InchokInch. Thankfully, putting myself inside a sad song is still a good place to feel happy.There's this generally unspoken feeling that musicians don't listen to their own music. That isn't true for me. I love living with my songs because their meaning changes as I change. There is as much fear and beauty in the big questions as there is wonder and possibility in the simple, everyday S**t we live through.Inch Album Tracks 1. A100 2. Car

Forget tall-walking ancestors, a decade in the post-grunge trenches and a viral streaming hit courtesy of an MTV Gen Z drama Brian Fennell has experience of all those, but it's the simple things that move him most. Focusing on the things that matter is how Fennell writes and records under his alias. Simplicity, then, is what moves SYML - pronounced Inchsimmel,Inch it means InchsimpleInch in Welsh. It's what makes his self-titled debut album such a wonder. Mixed by Grammy award winning engineer Joe Visciano (Beck, Adele), SYML is 12 tracks of transcendent dream-pop, synth-rock, folktronica and cathartic, uplifting emotion. All recorded at home, just him and his imagination. And all filtered through an instinctive, genetic appreciation of the valleys and mountains of a corner of distant Britain. The album features breakout single, InchWhere's My Love,Inch and fellow single, InchClean Eyes,Inch a sticky, anthemic track that showcases his ability to write and produce indie-pop songs while staying true to his emotive lyric style and heart-wrenching vocal range. Album Tracks 1. Clean Eyes 2. Wildfire 3. Bed 4. Where's My Love 5. Break Free 6. Animal 7. The Bird 8. Girl 9. Connor 10. Wdwgily 11. Everything All at Once 12. Before You Knew It Was Me
