Bio
The Brilliance’s acoustic-electric, symphonic-pop songs invite you to step outside yourself; to see the world through the eyes of the other, the stranger, and those you may consider your enemy. The band is comprised of songwriter David Gungor and composer John Arndt, who crafted the new album in collaboration with Biola University Orchestra and Chorus.
This suite, World Keeps Spinning: An Antidote to Modern Anxiety, asks the question, “Is this the end of the world?” So many are asking the question every day, believing it to be the end of the world, each for different reasons and in different ways. But hasn’t every generation asked that question? And how do we engage with others in the midst of these fears and concerns? The World Keeps Spinning Suite invites the listener into these questions, and to listen to the voices of one another in the midst of it.
World Keeps Spinning is a concept album that explores the root causes of modern anxiety and searches for ways to cope in the face of existential dread. Featuring full orchestra and choir, the album has a sprawling, eclectic sound, with wide-ranging sonic influences from Bach and Stravinsky to Jon Brion and The Beatles. The Brilliance take the listener on a beautiful, all-encompassing emotional journey toward the discovery of our need for each other.
Found Wandering is most often a trio consisting of Sarah Comstock (Vocals, Mandolin, Guitar), Colin Comstock (Guitar) and Jake L'Armand (Violin).
They enjoy collaborating together, rearranging songs from the past that still have much relevance for the human experience of our day and our ongoing need for inspiration, curiosity, friendship, hope and Love.
To date they have released three full-length albums, “Christmas In Country Village” in 2011, “Found Wandering” in 2014 and “On A Christmas Night” in 2015, as well several EPs that can all be found at FoundWandering.com and streamed on spotify, YouTube and most other streaming platforms.
