Cary Brothers

singer-songwriter // indie folk // soundtrack maven

Even if the name doesn’t ring a bell, chances are you’ve heard at least two of his songs. “Blue Eyes” and “Ride” were both featured on the soundtracks for “Garden State” and “The Last Kiss,” respectively. Don’t let that deter you. Cary has the incredible ability to home in on a variety of emotions, whether it’s heartache or defiance or a little of both. Each feeling is magnified, and while listening it’s as if at any moment you’ll burst into a million pieces.

If you had your own soundtrack, he’d be on it too.

    I really enjoyed listening to Honestly. I’ve listened to a fair few of his songs. He’s a really good singer, however I feel that from the tracks i’ve listened to he really has to venture out of the genre’s in to be truly appreciated.

    It’s all a bit same-y unfortunately.
