Brett Ratner

"Brett Ratner is one of the most engaging new acts in the area. Ratner's raw vocals combined with his straightforward, hard guitar playing create a passionate performance in the blues/folk tradition." - Chris Wolak, Area Marketing Manager, Borders Books and Music

THE SOUND:
Brett Ratner plays rock/pop music with heavy influence in blues and "alternative country." On stage, Ratner often plays solo, recording and layering guitar parts on the fly to create the illusion of an entire band. Ratner enhances his original material with a unique mix of cover songs and extended improvisational jams. Ratner's style has been compared to artists like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Pink Floyd, Neil Young, Tom Petty and Steve Earle.
