Brian Pounds

Brian Pounds is a singer-songwriter based in Austin, Texas. He was featured on NBC's reality TV show The Voice in 2013.[1][2][3] Pounds has performed alongside country legend Blake Shelton and singer-songwriter Sam Hunt.[4]

On September 2, 2014, Pounds released his new EP, Strikes and Gutters.[5]

The five-song album features original songs as well as a cover of Shane Bartell's "Sunday Dress.”[6]

Strikes and Gutters is the follow-up to Pounds’ debut full-length album, After You’re Gone.

Reviews of Strikes and Gutters which came out, in 2010, drew comparisons between Pounds and James Taylor.[7][8]

Pounds wrote "Jesus, Don’t Let Me Die (On My Feet)" in the middle of a disastrous two-week gig at a rundown casino in Nevada.[6] The EP’s opening track, "Someday Maybe Carolina" written with fellow The Voice Season-5 competitor Austin Jenckes, currently has more than 9,000 views on YouTube.

In July 2015, the Calgary Herald compared Pounds to singer-songwriter Townes Van Zandt.[9]
