Pieta Brown’s own blend of folk, rock, country, and blues has garnered numerous comparisons to musical forbearers Bob Dylan and Rickie Lee Jones, as well as contemporaries like Beth Orton and P.J. Harvey. Lyrically and musically poetic, Brown’s songs meet somewhere between the Carter Family and Tom Waits.

The daughter of two preacher’s kids, Brown spent her childhood in Iowa and Alabama amidst a bohemian and musical family. In her bare bones Iowa upbringing, Pieta was exposed to traditional and rural folk music through her folk singer father, Greg Brown. Later, while growing up in the deep south of Birmingham, Alabama, with her full-time working mother, Pieta drew on and expanded these musical influences and began writing poetry and composing songs for piano.

Pieta Brown-- Remember the Sun will be released September 25th on One Little Indian US.
