Cazz Brindis Album Review

Hometown: Malibu, Ca

When you wish upon a star, Cazz Brindis appears.

At first listen, the new Cazz Brindis EP comes across as a string of soothing lullabies that is most fitting as background music. But there’s something in the sound that made me listen again, and round two grew on me. Peaceful and dreamy are the best words to describe the listening experience of Cazz’s EP, with the noteworthy track “Mirrors”. That song is spectacular, moving gracefully from a lullaby sounding song into a music-only melody fit for a film. Cazz mixes his acoustic appeal with pop, delivering an emotional performance which can slightly sound like a Disney lullaby from the older films. His lyrics are motivating and uplifting, their message as sweet as the harmonies he weaves into his accurately falsetto-singing voice. The arrangements are simple, but careful. Acoustic guitars, strings, and bells buzz around the central piano tracks. Simplicity is refreshing. Cazz’s lyrics are the highlight – his message is of innocent love. Author Fanny Howe once noted that the love between two sixteen-year old teens is truer than the love of grown adults. Young lovers who are content to just lay with each other all day long have something that adults who run a routine love life don’t have. Cazz’s music is about finding this “something” that seems to be lost in so many relationships. His music will take you back to a time when you lived in a world with your lover and nobody else.
