Jenner Moves KTLA News Anchor To Tears With Acoustic Performance Of “Life For Two” – Watch It Here
“these songs reveal the through-line of authenticity in Jenner’s storytelling that makes ‘Short of Home’ the truest testament to his artistry yet.” – American Songwriter
Los Angeles singer, songwriter, and producer Brandon Jenner has released his new EP and Nettwerk debut Short of Home, which was written, recorded, and produced in the midst of the 2020 global pandemic, following a whirlwind year of gigs around the world, marriage, and the birth of his twin sons. Coupling life changes with a lifetime devoted to music thus far, Short of Home sees Brandon open up like never before. Listen to the full EP HERE.
He also recently released a moving new music video for the emotional song “Life for Two,” written at the request of a dying fan in Denmark as a song for her two young children. Brandon recently appeared on KTLA 5 News at 1 for a chat and acoustic performance of “Life for Two,” which brought news anchor Courtney Friel to tears.
Brandon’s music feels like a lot of different things—often all at once. In some ways, it’s like your childhood best friend disclosing an important truth by the glow of a beach bonfire. In other ways, it’s like the moment you stop worrying about what other people think and can laugh and smile anywhere without apology. With a singer-songwriter mom (Linda Thompson), he went from “being a fly on the wall” in his stepdad’s studio (David Foster) to developing his own relationship with music when Ben Harper’s “Forever” got him through his first true breakup. After a pair of EPs and major syncs as one half of Brandon & Leah, he launched his solo career with the independent Burning Ground EP in 2016. The title track amassed over 26.5 million Spotify streams as he claimed coveted real estate on popular playlists. In between tours with Rachael Yamagata and Joshua Radin, he unveiled three EPs: Face The World [2018], Plan On Feelings [2019], and So Childish [2020].
