NELSON BRAGG is a drummer-percussionist-singer-songwriter-producer-arranger who plays with Brian Wilson, The Quarter After, The Now People, The Mello Cads, Carolyn Edwards, Jeff Merchant and has played and recorded with The Tyde, Stew, Cloud Eleven, and The Mockers.
Bragg began working on Day Into Night in 2003, six months before he got the call to join Brian Wilson on the road for the now-legendary Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE, which was performed before a live audience in London in February 2004. “I had already laid down the vocals and most of the backing tracks,” Bragg said in an interview. The Stockholm Strings & Horns, who also performed in the SMiLE tours, appear on seven tracks of the new album.
After a year and eight months performing in seven tours with Brian Wilson, Bragg went back into the studio in September 2005 to finish Day Into Night. “During the SMiLE tours, I had to put the solo album on hold. But the tours also allowed me to finance finishing it. And working with Brian inspired me to make the best album I could possibly make.”

Pop genius
author: Martin White
The singing and musicianship on this album is brilliant, making this one of those under-appreciated underground masterpieces that will reward only the most persistent of crate diggers. How can an album of such highs as "Darkness into Gold" and "Lived" and "Tell me I'm Wrong" and "Every Minute" be a sideman now? This guy should be obsessing in a studio, so should Wondermints, not raking in the cash backing a oldies deity, but their moment of sublime creativity may have passed. This is a CD you need, if you have any leftover affinity for power pop.

Fantastic CD. Can't wait for another album to be released.
author: Fay
What a superb CD. I enjoyed every track on Day Into Night. Fantastic use of roving chords and harmonies. Fantastic combination of influences from such diverse genres. This CD has some of the best lyrical and musical arrangements I have heard in a long time. It definately holds it's place in my top ten all time favourites. Can't wait for another release by Nelson Bragg.
