Live Music: Bryan John Appleby
Bryan John Appleby is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Seattle. His folk-centric body of work meanders between mid-century pop, cinematic psych, and 70s crooner country.

These days, the goal is to find more connective “human-scale” rooms to perform in, building regional DIY tours (preferably with routes near swimmable water). His latest full-length, Underwater Easy Breathing, exemplifies his distinct production palette....

Bryan John Appleby is a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Seattle. His folk-centric body of work meanders between mid-century pop, cinematic psych, and 70s crooner country.
With a body of work spanning two decades, he’s toured with Deep Sea Diver, The Head and the Heart, and Tomo Nakayama, and shared stages with Damien Jurado, Y La Bamba, Shaina Shepherd, Dean Johnson, Sera Cahoone, and many others. These days, the goal is to find more connective “human-scale” rooms to perform in, building regional DIY tours (preferably with routes near swimmable water).
His latest full-length, Underwater Easy Breathing, exemplifies his distinct production palette. Lush, coastal, and synth-laced, the album is a natural next step in his wandering, often densely layered repertoire. Previous works include The Narrow Valley (2015), a cinematic, maximalist concept album drenched in dreamy, orchestral layers and experimental sounds, and Fire on the Vine (2011), a darker collection with more conventional folk structures and organic instrumentation.
