Brian Cutean ‘Guitarred and Feathered’ Concert February 27, 2010

After five albums and nearly 30 years of songwriting, performing wordplay, metafables and stories, Oregon troubadour Brian Cutean (aka QTN) has released Guitarred and Feathered, a new CD of wordless acoustic guitar music for mindheartsouls to sing along with; antifrantic music that breathes and celebrates.

With one guitar, a whirl of musical ideas and the sound of hands, wound wires and wood, Cutean weaves together instrumental songs with dynamic playing in the new CD. “The four elements I reached for in this recording, “ says Cutean, “are melody, rhythm, a bassline and silence. This album is a breather from a world shrill with opinions, instant message me-me-me blogs and 24 hour news chatter. It is universal in every language and the stories it tells belong to us all."

Based in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, an Oregon Country Fair and Kerrville Folk Festival veteran, Cutean continues to tour throughout the country and his concerts have become community events.
