Brad Payne Acoustic Storm

About the CD

This CD was recorded live at a show in Wichita Falls, Texas after a hard tour schedule that took Brad from North Carolina to Colorado. Brad Payne wrote all of these songs about his own life experiences. This is presented as is, recorded live, mistakes and all.

Description of each song in Brad's words:

Lezbee Friends: This song is meant to be funny; it started out as a joke between friends. I wrote it for my best friend who is a lesbian.

Broken Promises: I wrote this song with Rob Bittle about relationships that we thought would last forever, but didn't.

Gypsie Lullibye/Oh Carolina: This song is about the experience of traveling across the country from a place I considered home. It was a great time of discovery for me; defining the hardships associated with starting my solo career. The song does not capture the individual events but rather the overall feeling of safely arriving back to where it all began...

Earl: written for a homeless man that I shared breakfast with.

Consequence of Winning: This song is based on the discovery that sometimes winning isn't the most important thing.

Ode to Stella Ray: I wrote this song for my grandmother after cancer took her away. The night before her funeral, I sat up all night and wrote this tribute to the greatest woman I ever knew...she showed me the meaning of faith.

Make-Up Song: This was written for two friends who fell in love and were so wrapped up with one another that they forgot about everything else.

Gypsie Princess: I wrote this song for a beautiful girl that I fell in love with.

  • He's singing with angels now.
    author: Cristy Bittle

    My husband and I are shocked and saddened by Brad's passing. Brad had an amazing gift for music, a voice like no other. I am sad that Rob and Brad will no longer play Oh Carolina together, it was magic with the two of them. Brad, I know you are singing with angels now. We send our condolences to your friends and wife.

  • Saw Him Live - Buy the CD!!!
    author: Peggy Sue

    While on business in St. Augustine happened across this awe inspiring musician. The combination of his incredible talent in vocals, guitar and song writing make this musician a must see. As others have said, his music is heartfelt and provides you with a sense of where he been. I hope you go far, my friend. God gave us a gift when he gave us you.

  • Saw him live in St. Augustine! The CD is just as good!
    author: Joe White

    The CD starts out with sort of a joke/funny song, but the rest of it is really heart-felt and emotional. Earl is by far my favorite, it just tells a great story. Ode to Stella Ray is a beautiful tribute to his Grandma and The Make-Up Song is just RIGHT ON!! I hope we can see him Live again soon...

  • ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!
    author: Misti

    When I ordered this CD, I was expecting greatness ... I under estimated the obvious talent. Brad has a wonderful soothing sound that is so heart felt in his music, it makes you want to laugh and cry at the same time! The music is beautiful and the lyrics very well done. I would highly recommend this CD!

  • Beautiful music!
    author: Debbie

    This is Brad at his best as far as I'm concerned! The writing is fantastic - "Lezbee Friends" is hilarious and clever, "Broken Promises" is just plain awesome and "Gypsy Princess" is one of the most beautiful & cleverly written love songs I've ever heard. It melts my heart! You can't go wrong buying this CD. I love being part of that crowd in the backround. Brad is a very gifted singer and songwriter!

    i studied music for years and you cant spend enough money to learn this,ever. he is an unbelievable singer/songwriter and could write a song every day,it just flows like water. this is the most amasing raw talent i have ever seen. real heart and unbridaled talent. if you come to see his show you will be enraptured..

  • He shoots that guitar from the hip, better than a grease gun
    author: Dr. Gonzo

    I just met this 8-baller and No that isnt DRUGS, but the music he writes and sings and plays is a warm and soothing drug all on its own. I will pick up the full CD as soon as I get some cash in my wallet and stop spending my nights jamming out on a grease gun getting picked off by BOTS. ADIOS MOCHA CHA

  • Terrific music and excellent lyrics
    author: Lisa

    These songs are written from personal experience and I can relate to all of them. The lyrics are full of emotion. My favorite song is Broken Promises - for all of us who have dared to love and lost. This is a great cd.
