In Their Words: “I wrote ‘One of a Kind’ after having a very realistic dream. In that dream, my lovely wife decided to move my truck to a field next to our house when she misjudged a pile of rocks and broke my truck in half. I ran over to see if I could help and then woke up. I thought it was funny that at the time in my dream all I was worried about was the state of my truck and not of whether or not my wife was OK. It sure sounded like an idea for a good country song.” — Brandon Jenner

LISTEN: Brandon Jenner, “Life for Two”

Artist: Brandon Jenner
Hometown: Los Angeles, California
Song: “Life for Two”
Album: Short of Home EP
Release Date: June 11, 2021
Label: Nettwerk

In Their Words: “After a show in Copenhagen, Denmark, I was approached by a woman who felt inspired enough to tell me about how much my music meant to her. As always, I was very humbled by her kind words. She would go on to ask an unexpected favor of me. Little did I know, her confidence in me and my songwriting would change my life forever. She told me that she was diagnosed with a health issue that was sure to end her life within a few years and that she was struggling with the fact that she would be leaving her young children behind to navigate life on their own. She asked me if I would write a song about her experience. I gladly accepted and began thinking about this new song right away. For me, the direction for the song was to write a letter, from her perspective, about what she would want her children to know before she passes. A letter filled with comforting words and some advice on how she thinks their lives would be best lived. ‘Life for Two’ became the title and I hope this song brings some comfort to those who are going through personal loss in their own lives.” — Brandon Jenner
