Details:
Brendan Weaver, a fourth generation Kalamazooan (that''s a person from Kalamazoo, MI)with multi-ethnic roots, creates an eclectic blend of folk rock, which reflects his focus on the values of environmentalism, family, social justice, and inner and outer peace. Brendan is now a resident of Nashville, TN. He has a strong history in music, studying piano from a very young age. Brendan plays acoustic and electric, and standard and octave, mandolins and accompanies his music with vocals. Brendan’s debut album, Mandocentric, was well received during his release party at Ravenwood Coffee in Kalamazoo, on 11 March 2006.
Brendan’s interest in social and environmental issues comes from the strong influences of his grandmother, Kay McKinney. This was the woman that shaped his life and taught curiosity, a love for God and nature, and the necessity of imagination. She always told stories of her adventures in Africa, the Middle East, Europe, the Pacific Northwest, or her youth as a first generation American in early twentieth century Montana. She exposed Brendan to a much different ‘80’s, not populated by sugar candies and fatty ice creams, ninja turtles, the transformers, and Madonna’s conical wonder bras, but one where natural honey always substituted bleached cane sugar, big foot lived in the woods behind her apartment, salmon quiche was their favorite dinner, and St. Nicholas would visit every 6th of December.
Currently Brendan lives in Nashville, TN, and is a graduate student of historical anthropology at Vanderbilt University. Brendan also holds an MA and BA in anthropology from Western Michigan University. His research interest is in the archaeology of the early colonial period and focuses on labor in the rapidly changing Americas. Over the past few years he has had opportunities to conduct field work both in South America and the Caribbean, particularly Peru, Bolivia and Barbados.
