Crystal Brandt is rock n' roll that's south of folk and north of country. Originally from Maryland, she was raised on Elvis, heavy 70's country and classic rawk until she was old enough to change the dial. Her self-taught guitar sound comes from years of chord roulette and a genuine interest in the varieties of music.
She started performing bar bands in southern Maryland, eventually moving to DC to find other musicians and play her own music. In May of 2000 she broke up the band and moved to New York City, where she now resides.
Crystal's self-produced debut album, 'Fixing to Break' is available on Sisterluk Records. These songs are determined and hopeful, even when it sounds like she doesn't want to be.

Great debut with thoughtful catchy tunes
author: Kim Fisher
Crystal Brandt's first major release is home-grown, lacking all the usual slick paraphenalia that accompany the major labels -- and what we're left with is genuine songwriting, nothing more and nothing less. This album comes from the heart, and it's refreshing to hear tunes that aim to please, full of melody and poetry and free of gimmickry and artifice. If you're looking for bland pop, on the one hand, or cutting-edge rhythms and improvisation, on the other, look elsewhere. But if you dig artists like Fiona Apple or Shawn Colvin, give this a listen.
