No Simple Road

Avram Brown from The Wheel - Painting Life With Sound


Listen Later

We are so excited to have Avram Brown of 'The Wheel' as our guest on No Simple Road this week! Combining his melodic vocal-driven songcraft with lush kaleidoscopic production and guitar textures, The Wheel spins open an interdimensional portal that weaves indie folk-rock into psychedelic dreamscapes on his debut self-titled album.

It’s no coincidence that Avram Brown named his new musical project The Wheel. In many ways, the singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist has come back to where he started on The Wheel’s self-titled debut.

We talk with Avram about:

  • - Painting life with different hues such as sing-writing, playing guitar, or producing music.
  • - How 'The Wheel' got its name.
  • - Producing his first bluegrass band 'Cascade Crescendo'.
  • - Why this new album should be listened to front to back.
  • - How being raised on folk music affected and shaped his music perspectives.
  • - What 3 albums majorly influenced his musical sensibilities.
  • - How seeing Ravi Shankar at age 15 was a mustical/spiritual experience and changed his life forever.
  • ... and so much more!
