SUMMARY:Brian Fallon & The Painkillers
DTSTAMP:20260618T211341Z
DTSTART:20261108T173000Z
DESCRIPTION:Rock songwriter from New Jersey\n\nBrian Fallon has caused a se
	nsation over the past decade and a half with the\nAmerican rock band The G
	aslight Anthem. Critics and fans alike praised Fallon\nfor his sincere\, r
	omantic style of writing and his powerful voice\, which was\nreminiscent o
	f that other musician from New Jersey: Bruce Springsteen. The Boss\nhimsel
	f also gave him his blessing. But Brian Fallon does not draw from a single
	\nsource. During periods when The Gaslight Anthem is inactive\, the singer
	 releases\nbeautiful solo albums (and who still remembers the stunning alb
	um 'Elsie' by\nside project The Horrible Crowes?). Fallon's fifth studio a
	lbum\, 'Not Bad For\nNew Jersey'\, will be released at the end of the summ
	er\, and on November 8\, he\nwill perform at Paradiso with his backing ban
	d\, 'The Painkillers'.\n\nWith this new album\, the singer-songwriter rein
	forces the challenging\nromanticism that has always fueled his songwriting
	. He resists the tendency to\nbecome more reserved over time. Before relea
	sing his fifth solo LP\, he returned\nto the fatalistic love songs that ha
	d shaped him so deeply as a child\;\nmelancholic radio hits by rock icons 
	in the prime of their careers\, sung by\nwild-looking dreamers whom he alt
	ernately calls "beautiful losers" and\n"desperate madmen." As he compiled 
	a series of songs featuring characters who\nlove too intensely and take to
	o many risks\, Fallon built an oeuvre that thunders\nforward at a tumultuo
	us pace: the unique inner movement of someone who has\nstrayed from his pa
	th more than once\, yet continues to believe and refuses to\nsurrender to 
	the easy gravity of cynicism.\n\nSupport by: Chris Fallen
