Brady Toops Delivers Authentic Vulnerability on I Can’t Make You Love Me

by Joshua (J.Smo) Smotherman June 22, 2017 2:53 pm Tagged With: Americana, Folk, Piano, singer, songwriter, Soul

Brady Toops-Tried and True

Brady Toops delivers an engaging mix of folk, Americana and soul music. In his minimalist piano-based rendition of Bonnie Raitt’s I Can’t Make You Love Me (which appeared on her 1991 album Luck of the Draw), Brady shows off a genuine vulnerability immediately evoking emotion and pulling the listener into the mood of this hauntingly enchanting sound bed.

Currently sitting on 2 million song spins on Spotify and a few years worth of touring the United States, Brady Toops has managed to achieve nationwide acclaim including sharing festival stages with the likes of NEEDTOBREATHE and Switchfoot. He has also opened for Drew Holcomb and Ben Rector.

In 2013, Toops (while living in Nashville) released his self-titled debut. He has also appeared on The Bachelorette Season 11.

Brady Toops is definitely a talented creative you need to keep on your radar.

His latest album Tried & True is now available on iTunes and Amazon.
