The Brkn is an alt pop band based out of Denver, CO. 

Hi! When you look at all the music you have made, what is the big picture for how you want your artistry to be seen?

Hello! Thank you for having us! I’d say we really just want people to view our music as an extension of ourselves. We put all of what we have into the tunes we write and the shows we play. We just hope people see that and find it organic, inspiring, and/or comforting in some way. Our goal is always to make art that we love wholeheartedly and hope it relates to our fans as well.   

You challenge the status quo, how did you identify your purpose for the music you wanted to put out?

Honestly we really just decided to go head first into the pop world. We’d been talking about it for so long that it just made sense to take a crack at making a pop record. Especially during all of the down time we had during covid. Now, through a ton of searching, I think we’re finally onto a sound that’s “our own” for this next record we’re about to make.

When you create your body of work, are there boxes you must check or does everything evolve as it should be and you allow for the checklist to not be completely checked?

We don’t really have a checklist or anything like that. The guys and I just want to make stuff that moves us. A lot of the time we just search for the vibe until it shows up. It’s like magic when things just kind of happen. Sometimes I feel like when we try too hard we get worse results. 

Could you give us some insight of what your checklist does look like if you have one?

If we were to have a checklist I think the only thing that would be on it would be to be yourself and trust the vibe. 

Who are you paying homage to for your vision as an artist? 

Definitely The 1975, Michael Jackson, Van Halen, Prince and many more but those are who comes to mind immediately. 

You are a visionary, please keep us in the loop of what your plans are for more music and WHERE you are headed next for your fans to connect with you?

As of now we’re starting to record another EP that should be out early 2023! We’re very stoked for that as well as our shows in Austin coming up in March. Hopefully we’ll have a tour planned for the album when it comes out in early 2023 as well! Please stay tuned and follow us on Instagram, Spotify, Apple Music, and thebrkn.com for all of our info!
