UNDER THE RADAR is the first album from BRIAN McARDLE, singer, songwriter and guitarist. Although this is Brian’s first CD, many other artists in the United States and Australia have cut his songs.
UNDER THE RADAR was produced by Nashville session musician and Loggins and Messina sideman Gary Oleyar and Broadway musician and arranger Gary Georgett. The songs are heartfelt and warm with well-crafted lyrics and strong, catchy melodies. The tunes are enhanced by sweet lead vocals, vibrant harmonies and superb musicianship. This is a CD you will want to listen to over and over again.

Rx for a tough day
author: Debby O'BrienHaving a difficult or down day? 10 out of 10 doctors prescribe listening to "Under the Radar". Please watch for these 3 side effects: 1.Your foot quietly begins to tap. 2.Your heart suddenly feels lighter. 3.Your eyes immediately start to see the brighter side again. Anecdotal records also indicate that you may dust off your old guitar and find your voice again!

Under the Radar
author: Donna TullyThis CD is now my favorite while driving in my car. It provides such relaxing and smooth listening. I love the instrumentals and harmonic vocals. I find myself humming "Light in the Window" amd "She's Gone To Arizona" when I am about my work. I look forward to Brian's next CD!!!
Great Album
author: Shelley KusnetzWhat a great listening experience. From the opening emotional "Steady As She Goes" to the haunting final track "Carved In Stone," this album won't let you down. Brian's vocals are sensitive and compelling and have the same sweet smoothness that Vince Gill possesses. Brian's gift for intelligent lyrics, great vocals and solid songwriting meld the perfect balance of country roots music to contemporary country pop. "Slow Ride" is a personal favorite and a great example of Brian and his family singing together. "Heartbeat Away," "Light In The Window," and "She's Gone To Arizona" are destined to be hit singles. Great stuff.
It is AWESOME. Easy to listen to great songs!
author: Kathleen MedoreI have not stopped listening to this CD since I received it. I think that I have worn out two tracks, so I may have to buy another copy soon. The songs are great and the vocals are great.
