Bryan Copeland formed Bryan and the Aardvarks in order to explore an
inventive new sound that derived from his jazz training as well as his
upbringing in pop and country music. The music he writes for the
quartet combines a hushed intimacy with memorable, singable melodies
and a narrative directness that nevertheless leaves space for
expressive improvisation. In vocalist Camila Meza, pianist Fabian Almazan,
vibraphonist Chris Dingman, guitarist Jesse Lewis, and drummer Joe Nero,
he has assembled a distinctive ensemble able to flesh out his unique compositions.

Copeland hit on the sound of Bryan and the Aardvarks organically,
while coping with the death of a close friend. He sat down
at the piano one day and the shimmering melody of “Sunshine Through
the Clouds” flowed out of him. “I was having a hard time dealing with
the feelings I was having,” Copeland recalls, “and I wasn’t really
thinking about what I was playing. Something deep in my subconscious
just came out, and that’s still the approach I take with this band. I
just close my eyes and let my subconscious write the music.”
