"Brindl's voice makes you stop what you're doing and forget where you are. The moment she starts singing, the crowd is captivated. Like Norah Jones or Sarah Harmer, Brindl sings with sensuality and grace." (Drew Pearce, Contributing Writer for Acoustic Guitar Magazine)

Recently released on Brindlâs own label, Moxy Music, âAcoustic Heartâ is a collection of 12 new intimate and acoustic songs. The songs range from hopeful to heartbreaking with gently strummed guitar, layered harmonies and evocative piano solos. Reminiscent of Patty Griffinâs âLiving With Ghosts,â strong, passionate vocals and compelling stories are the driving force of Acoustic Heart. âI am inspired by the acoustic albums of artists like Gillian Welch and Patty Griffin. There is a rawness and honesty to an acoustic recording that I love.â
Born in New York state and raised in California, Brindl started writing songs on her brotherâs guitar at 16. She was influenced by everything from 70âs singer-songwriters like Joni Mitchell and Crosby, Stills and Nash to jazz singers of the 30âs and 40âs like Billy Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. (Her grandmother was 30âs singer, Connie Gates)

After spending four years at UC Santa Cruz directing and scoring films, she recorded âSweet Underneathâ in 2001,âNice Girlâ EP in 2004 and played extensively in the Greater Bay Area and West Coast.

Brindl started her own label Moxy Music in 2007 with the mission to cultivate independent music and act as a resource for independent artists. âThe digital revolution has broken up the traditional record label paradigm and has given unsigned artists more opportunity to be heard.â
