G. Brenner is the project of LA-based visual artist and musician Gabriel Brenner. Drawing on artists such as Arca, Grouper, and Julianna Barwick, he crafted an idiosyncratic style that fell gracefully between folk, gospel, and experimental electronic music. Formerly known as Pastel, Brenner released his debut EP, It Will Be Missed, via Manimal Vinyl in 2014. In 2015, he released his second EP, Bone-Weary, via rising Houston-based label Very Jazzed. In 2017, he self-released an EP entitled absent, just dust, a 5-song collection exploring language, loss, and identity through ambient-noise soundscapes. On Valentines Day 2018, he released one-off single "Close" to celebrate the holiday. After releasing a string of covers and remixes to close the chapter on his Pastel moniker, Brenner released “Brushfire,” his debut single as G. Brenner. His debut album of the same name will be released August 20, 2021 via Very Jazzed.
