Discovery: Will Brahm

Portland artist Will Brahm has been working on his music for decades, and you can really hear the passion within his new tune, Mayweather Beginning.

By Jane Howkins

It’s not easy to characterise Mayweather Beginning by genre – it’s a chilled-out track with a slightly prog-rock vibe. It’s also instrumental in nature, but the music is so good that the lack of vocals really shouldn’t put you off. Instead, the main focal point of the tune is Will’s glorious electric guitar stylings, played with a clean, bluesy tone that really adds emotion into the piece. The rhythm section works wonders in the background as the piece progresses through several different movements, culminating in a glorious crescendo of sounds.
