Hypnotic Romanticism and Aphrodisiacal Guitar Tones Drove Brian Lindsay’s ‘Hexbreaker’
No one plays quite like Brian Lindsay, or channels the key of retro rock harmony with such intoxicating magnetism. If he had broken onto the scene alongside Elvis, the contest for sonic sex appeal would have been fierce. With Hexbreaker, Lindsay delivers a devil-may-sensuously-care performance that teeters between nostalgia and raw seduction. The guitar chords curl like smoke around your imagination, casting you as the lead in your favourite 80s rom-com, while his deep, quasi-staccato vibrato pours aphrodisia into every bar.
Hexbreaker is escapism in its most potent form; surrender is inevitable as Lindsay lures listeners into a world where diehard romanticism reigns supreme, where guitar tones swagger with lustful intensity, and where his vocal performance absolves even the heaviest melancholy. It is a single that confirms why the NYC singer-songwriter has long been a force within roots-rock circles, building his reputation through records and performances that leave indelible impressions.
Across a career that has seen him perform alongside The Smithereens, Shooter Jennings, and Grand Funk Railroad, Lindsay has never ceased to evolve while keeping authenticity firmly at his core. With Hexbreaker, he cements his reputation not only as a lyrical craftsman but as an architect of retro rock escapism, able to shift the atmosphere of any room with a single chorus.
Hexbreaker is now available on all major streaming platforms, including YouTube.

“When Lindsay sings, ‘Tonight when the sun goes down, we’re gonna paint this town, paint a masterpiece and then we’ll burn it down’, it’s time to put the fire department on standby” - By Jeff Spevak

PRESS/REVIEWS
“"BRIAN LINDSAY BRINGS IT ALL BACK HOME WITH REVIVAL"” - By Murry Thomas
— https://groundcontrolmag.com/brian-lindsay-brings-it-all-back-home-with-revival/
“Brian Lindsay's ragged soul runs deep. You've only got to listen for a minute or so to know he's got something to say. But I'm not even talking about lyrics. There's a subliminal surge coursing through this roots-rocker's sound, one of bravado and yearning; one where there's no shame in desire...” - By Frank De Blase
“The Roots-Rock renegade Brian Lindsay has delivered the ultimate riff-licked revival. Brian Lindsay is the real deal. As much as he taps into Springsteen and Ryan Adams-esque high energy melodicism, he leans into his signature rugged yet smooth intoxicating aural juxtaposition style”.
