We are Brave Combo. We live in Denton, Texas, which is about 40 miles northwest of Dallas. For the last ten years we have been traveling around the United States performing music at clubs, festivals and parties. We like to play music from many different cultures and we let these different styles also influence our original compositions. We feel that trying to understand the soul or groove of another culture or society broadens your awareness of life as a whole. We hope to add some Japanese or Japanese influenced music to our show soon. If you have any suggestions for songs we should learn, please write to us and send a cassette. We love to get mail. The selections contained on this CD are mostly from previously released LP’s. Plus, there are four songs that make their debut here. We hope you enjoy our music. – Carl Finch
