Brandon Patton, songwriter and instrumentalist, currently resides in New Haven, CT.
Patton also plays bass under the pseudonym BL4k Lotus for MC Frontalot, progenitor of “nerdcore hiphop.” MC Frontalot’s band and its first national tour was the subject of the documentary Nerdcore Rising.
Brandon Patton’s newest album, “How I Allegedly Bit a Man in Gloucestershire,” features 13 mostly comical songs that capture hilarity of his live shows opening for MC Frontalot. On the album, he exposes dark family secrets (Mixed-Up Modern Family,) sings anthems about sex acts (Munching the Coch and Kethcup and Mayo,) recalls his time temping and looking for love on an alien planet (My Girlfriend Was Kidnapped by Aliens,) contemplates the limits of friendship (Would You Take a Bullet For Me?) and relates stories about traveling the world and getting into mischief (Big in Japan, Private Jet, How I Allegedly Bit a Man in Gloucestershire.)
Director’s Note: I met Brandon at Baby Grand, a tiny karaoke bar in SoHo, where he is the sole instrumentalist for Indie/Acoustic karaoke. After daring him to play everything from “Word Up” by Cameo to “Married Men” by the Roches, I was determined to have him contribute to the Remedy soundtrack in whatever way possible. I am is thrilled that Brandon agreed to provide bass tracks for the film’s score. He also played bass on my cover of “Your Woman” by White Town that is featured under the title sequence.
