Introduction for newcomers: Welcome! Brain is a rock band. Maybe you thought it had something to do with that lump between your shoulders. Well, that is wrong. It’s a rock band. This is what’s going on inside. Our head office is in Stockholm, Sweden. Here we write, record and produce original melodic rock music in a 70’s style with an influence from blues, progressive rock and large doses of dopamine. It’s simply Brain chemistry.

But we… Continue reading Our brand new single is out
First rehearsals after summer

Drum… Continue reading New recording sessions

Highway song
Today we release the second single in a series of three. The song of today is about a road trip. Buckle up. Here is a little video compilation we did just for fun. We did not make the original video content. But we did the music. (That is what Brain does.) Hope you like it.
Riding along with Muddy Waters
