Brad Jones - Gilt-Flake (1996)

A sophisticated slice of studio craftsmanship rooted in the classic lines and melodies of 1960's era pop. Lush harmonies, intricate instrumentation, and a straightforward beat underlie the literate word play. Listen now and hum later.

Culled from the recesses of an incredible song library, Gilt-Flake represents Nashville producer/sideman Brad Jones' entree into the power-pop arena.

"Jones certainly knows his pop, incorporating a bunch of sweetly catchy melodies and pretty harmonies, impeccably produced, of course. He rocks a bit here, slows it down a bit there and entertains throughout."
-Matt Hickey, Magnet

"Best known for his work touring and recording with the likes of Marshall Crenshaw, Mathew Sweet, Freedy Johnston and Bill LLoyd (and also for producing alternative acts such as Yo La Tengo and Jill Sobule), Nashville's Brad Jones has unleashed his own stupendous collection of 'so good it's hard to believe they're demos' pop songs."
-John M Borack, Goldmine

"These ostensible demos are as good as releases coming from major labels, and Jones' writing pops throughout."
-Patrick Beach, The Des Moines Register
