Brunio Who Releases “Brunio’s Mind”

Brunio Who

Bruno Gugliano is doing something rather cool here. Most artists make an album, release it, and move on to the next one. But “Brunio’s Mind” feels more like opening a book in the middle of a longer series, where you’re getting dropped into a world that already exists and will keep existing after these 16 tracks end.

The Buenos Aires musician has created this whole concept where each release is a season, not just another record. And honestly, it works better than you’d think. The music shifts constantly across these tracks, which could feel messy but instead comes across as intentional. One minute you’re in this moody, introspective space, the next you’re somewhere entirely different. Gugliano isn’t interested in staying put.

He refuses to pick a lane. There are moments that lean into alternative pop, sections that go full electronic, and then suddenly you’ll hear something that sounds like it belongs in a completely different genre. He mentions tango and punk as influences, and while those aren’t always obvious, you can feel this restless energy throughout the album that makes sense coming from someone who sees genre as just another tool.

The whole thing reminds me of those big concept albums from the 70s, but updated for right now. Gugliano name checks “The Wall” as an influence, and you can hear that ambition to build something bigger than just a collection of songs. Each track connects to the others, not always in obvious ways, but you get the sense that there’s a story playing out even when you can’t quite grasp all of it on first listen.

Ahead of tonight’s penultimate show of The Night Champion World Tour, Koe Wetzel surprised fans with the release of “Hard Way,” rounding out the deluxe edition of his critically acclaimed sixth studio album, The Night Champion. Listen to “Hard Way” and order The Night Champion (Deluxe) on vinyl via KoeWetzelMusic.com.

“Hard Way” finds Wetzel teaming up with fellow genre-bending artist Stephen Wilson Jr. for the final addition to the project that has given fans a steady flow of new music since its initial arrival in June. The hard-charging, guitar-forward anthem unites the pair’s growling vocals in a rock-fueled tale of lessons learned through a life lived on the edge.

“It’s been a hell of a ride with this record, and we weren’t quite done yet. Before the sun comes up on The Night Champion, we’ve got one more song left to play,” shares Wetzel. “I’ve been a fan of Stephen’s for a while now, and we got to play a bunch of shows together last year, so I’m fired up to have a song together now, too.”

The surprise release arrives as Wetzel continues a career-defining run, with current single “Jaded” feat. Ella Langley Top 10-and-climbing at Country radio and reaching a new peak of No. 18 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.

Following this week’s conclusion of The Night Champion World Tour, Wetzel reunites with Parker McCollum for the return of their Naughty or Nice Tour, with six sold-out acoustic shows across Texas to celebrate the holiday season.
