New York’s Andy Chase of BROOKVILLE is a musician and producer best known as a member of the band Ivy.
BROOKVILLE allows Chase to balance his talent for songcraft with his love for rich sonic landscapes and textures. It is a band where Chase is free to explore the type of languid, atmospheric music that is only hinted at within the tight pop framework of Ivy’s records. But the many contributing musicians that appear, including Eric Matthews, James Iha, The Brazilian Girls, Steve Osborne (New Order, Elbow, Doves), Jean-Pierre Ensuque (Autour de Lucie), Jody Porter (Fountains Of Wayne), Josh Lattanzi (Ben Kweller, The Lemonheads), Marty Beller (They Might Be Giants), Tim Yehezkely (The Postmarks) and many others, suggest that BROOKVILLE is always a collaborative effort that leaves ample room for experimentation and exploration.
