Gifted with an infectious little hook
about one of the many ways in which budding relationships can stall before they
flourish, singer/songwriter/guitarist Brett Mikels and longtime friend &
collaborator Jason Orme (Alanis Morisette, Sarah McLachlan, Big Red Button)
wrote, recorded, and produced Love Says So throughout the summer of 2009. Three
other amazing musicians with talent and resumes to die for lent their magic to
this recording: Herman Matthews (drums), Dan Rothchild (Bass), and Vincent
Leslie Jones (Keyboards). Michael James, who produced and mixed Brett's first
album “Deep Enough” alongside Brett and producer Bill Kole, mixed Love Says so,
and David Donnely (DNA Mastering) polished it up for the world! This was the
last song written for Brett's follow up record, but is the first released.
Follow up singles and the forthcoming album are scheduled for Fall / Winter
release 2009.....

So, it's been a while since I've left a message here on Myspace. Been runnin' all over playing music, driving the LA freeways, ALL of them, traveling, writing the next record, in the studio working on pre-production, recording, playing and writing with other artists, recently and notably Malea McGuinness at Summerfest where we were a supporting act to Gavin DeGraw... loving it all!
In a few weeks, we'll be releasing a new single off the forthcoming album, and I'm WAY more than anxious, thrilled, stoked, pumped, psyched, excited, over the moon, jazzed, flipped out, (insert your favorite colloquialism or just stop me now) amped, cranked!!!
The sound and vibe? It's starting off where Disconnected left off with a little more groove, electric guitar, and tempo. I promise it'll be worth all this wait. :) Of course, announcements will be plastered all over, links, etc. I will also share more details on the upcoming record, and tour soon.
Some huge thanks that are long overdue for the past handful of months to Herman Matthews, Jason Orme, Ned Albright, Nancy Badger, Lee Sklar, Dan Rothchild, Vincent Jones (early), Doug Kaplan, Steve Skaggs, Follow The Monkey, Doug Diamond, Bob Dixon, Phil Jamison, Damage Control, Strymon, Kiki Wow, Rebecca Wolf, Wally Sales, Matt Chidgey, Jason Saracco, Tyler Dragness, Matt Hufschmidt, Sean Carter, Highland Hall, Tiago, Shawn Davis, Ryan Roberts, Doc Pebe, and last but always most, my family!
Stay tuned...

Hello all!
It's been a busy year thus far, and it's only getting started... in... well... July... :)
Just a little heads up as to what's been going on over here.
I've been busy writing songs for a new record, working with Fundamental Music & Jeff Creed (TV / Film), travelling a bit (FL, MN, NorCal), and writing with an R & B artist (see my top friends) for her new record. Karin Lapidot definitely deserves some ear-time, and I will be posting a reminder when her record comes out.
This week, heading to Nicaragua for some R&R, then back and heading into the studio to record the new music. I look to be out on the road late fall / winter this year. (I'll be hitting up my buddies Kim, Paul, and Shane for some European dates as well! OH, and if you're listening Karen Anne... eh hem... I NEED to come back to OZ.... NOW!!!!!! :)
As always, HUGE thanks for all the kind words, comments, and "hello what is UP with you's".....
Wishing the VERY best for you all, and I look forward to seeing you & speaking with you very soon....

So.... got the word a few days ago that I was selected to perform in Amsterdam... in TWO WEEKS!!!! YIKES!!!! Info is on the AMP: Artists Meeting Place profile (in my top friends list)....
Long been a dream of mine to perform/tour in Europe and will be SCRAMBLING to find other gig opportunities, radio opportunities, both there and in neighboring countries...
IF anyone has any ideas, hookups, direction, contacts, referrals, frequent flyer miles to donate... If anyone owns a hotel or home without cats (I'm unfortunately deathly allergic).... A couch, preferably IN a home or hotel... ;) If anyone wants to share some insight about that part of the world... PLEASE write me... I'd LOVE to hear from you...
I'm so excited and can't wait to get on a plane... of course, I suppose I have to book a flight, but this close... scared to peek into the cost... ha ha
Hope all of you are doing wonderfully!
If you are in Amsterdam or can get there without much trouble, would LOVE to see you!
All the best, Brett

It appears someone Posted a Bulletin on my Account... So sorry I didn't catch it sooner!
To those who sent me a warning.. HUGE thanks...
I was actually performing at a fundraiser and came home to a few messages from friends warning me that someone posted an adult only bulletin on my profile...
I have no idea how that happened, but I've removed it and sent myspace a message..
MANY MANY apologies for any inconvenience or if anyone was offended..
I assure you, I had NO CLUE about this...
I've heard it happens to myspacers, and now it happened to me..
Thanks so much for the heads up and I hope you're ALL doing fantastic!
All the best, Brett
