Like A Man, the new EP from multicultural, multilingual songwriter, vocalist, visual artist, and author Brie Stoner, resonates with a newfound confidence, clarity, and coquettish swagger. A melodic ode to Stoner’s formative years in Los Angeles, the record shimmers like sunshine on ocean waves. In contrast with the free flowing, meandering, and unhurried energy of recent full-length Me Veo, Like A Man captures Stoner’s painterly lyricism in concise, heady confections. With the help of producer David Vandervelde (Father John Misty), she has created a piece of art that both stands on its own and serves as a sonic bridge to her upcoming California-themed 2025 full length.
Brie Stoner is an artist who pulls from her multi-lingual and multi-cultural background to great effect in her Indie-Dream-Rock music, writing, and art. As a musician, Stoner has worked with producers Jay Bennett (Wilco), and most recently with David Vandervelde (Father John, Secretly Canadian) on her new album “Me Veo”.
“Me Veo” is Spanish for “I see myself,” and this revelatory self-discovery and homecoming is evident in her indie-dream rock songs, that travel the arc of the her own feminine tense… harmonizing between the seductive siren, vulnerable tenderness, and moments of sovereignty in their unapologetic truth telling.
Her sound is freshly her own but lends inspirations from Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac, and Mazzy Star. Brie’s music has been featured by Victoria Secret, Orange Is the New Black, The Affair and Ralph Lauren.
Brie has a new book coming out and has a podcast, Unknowing, a conversation between artists, and other creatives about their process.
