Brook Pridemore
Brook Pridemore (born in 1979 in Detroit, Michigan, USA) is an American singer-songwriter affiliated with the Antifolk scene in New York City. He has released five albums on the Bronx-based record label Crafty Records, and co-produced a compilation of antifolk acts for that label called Anticomp Folkilation. He has contributed to numerous other compilations [1], and recently shared a split 7-inch with Ghost Mice for Plan-It-X Records.
He has toured the United States numerous times and is mounting his first European tour in the fall of 2009[2]. Due to his experience playing many house shows on tour, Pridemore and his roommates were inspired to turn his own apartment into a performing venue for local antifolk acts and touring bands; they titled it the Brooklyn Tea Party [3].
