Brandi Carlile - Bear Creek

Featuring "That Wasn't Me," "Hard Way Home," and "Raise Hell"

Contains CD of the complete album

Bear Creek, Brandi Carlile's fourth studio album. The album, which was recorded at Bear Creek Studios outside of Seattle, was co-produced by Brandi and The Twins (along with Trina Shoemaker). The first single released is "That Wasn't Me."

Carlile has spent the better part of the last decade traversing the planet, bringing her music to an ever-growing fan following. Bear Creek sees the singer/songwriter using the experience garnered from life on the road to elevate her already astonishing artistry to a new plane. The album is marked by Carlile's earthy, naturalistic approach to recording, with songs like "Raise Hell" and "That Wasn't Me" set apart by intuitive, inventive instrumentation and Brandi's remarkable vocals — by turns nuanced and raw, brilliantly uninhibited and always expressive. Bear Creek stands as a major milestone for Carlile, the moment in which she integrated the knowledge and skills accumulated over the past eight years to craft her most personal and definitive work thus far.

"You take what you learn from situations and marry them with your own ideas," she says. "That's what happened with Bear Creek, that's why it's such an important record for me."
