BIO

Brendon returns with stirring folk single “Nothing’s Changed” – Out Friday April 18th, 2025Brendon, the ever-reflective voice of British folk, returns with Nothing’s Changed - a powerful, modern-day protest song that channels timeless influences with a sharp eye on today’s world. Produced by Multi-instrumentalist, Dublin born Fiachra Mac Oireachtai (Fjokra, Lazy Habits).Inspired by a poignant memory with Joan Baez in 1973 and stirred by the recent film A Complete Unknown, Brendon draws a subtle counterpoint to Bob Dylan’s anthem The Times They Are A-Changin’. In Nothing’s Changed, he paints vivid portraits of inequality, privilege, and hardship, weaving a story of how the social divide remains stubbornly intact through the decades. Brendon reflects how looking back it seems that not much has really changed at all over the years.“The melody and concept came to me one evening,” Brendon explains. “I wanted to keep it simple, grounded, and true to my style — and Fi captured that perfectly with a warm, upbeat folk arrangement. The mandolin lifts it, but the message is plain: the gap between the haves and have-nots hasn’t gone anywhere.”-------------Brendon is renowned for his previous works in 1974 with his first album being signed to UK Records. He had later releases with Ariola Records and Magnet Records in the Mid 70’s. Perhaps his biggest song was ‘Gimme Some’ which hit the UK singles charts in 1977, which saw him feature on Top of the Pops on a number of occasions. He has since returned to his folk roots with an album ‘Hold My Hand’ and EP ‘Baby in Space’.Brendon gained success in 1974, at the age of 19, after beating 500 other tapes submitted to Jonathan King to win a record deal with his label, U.K. Records. Speaking of the first encounter with Brendon, King states: “Brendon uses his guitar like a rhythm section. His singing is fairly mature, but the lyrics and melody are teenage.” Through his record deal, Brendon released his debut folk rock album simply “Brendon” that included a Billboard Top Single Pick “Make Me A Dollar Make Me A Dime”. He later released the disco hit “Gimme Some” and “Rock Me” with Magnet Records which saw him feature on Top of the Pops on a number of occasions.Check out the video for Brendon's previous single 'Voyager' below
