"Reel in Between" is Brychan' 4th studio album.
Recorded between Wales and Italy over a period of 1 year, it is produced by Paolo Benvegnù
 
The record sets a new standard for Brychan' music: 11 new tracks recorded with the artistic guidance of Paolo Benvegnù at Sotterfugio Studio and Alpha2 Studio and feature Mimmo Mellace (from Il Parto Delle Nuvole Pesanti) on drums and Gabriele Tommasini (from Violet eves) on bass, Roberto Celi on Vibraphone, Chris Lewis on guitar, Christian Lisi on doublebass and Nick Manzan on strings.
It's a perfect blend of electronic and acoustic instruments and is the best collection of tracks that Brychan as written.

 

After various experiences with Welsh bands, Brychan started his solo carreer in 1988 with the acoustic "Veleno Rumoroso" (recorded in his bathroom!) that brought his skills to the ears of a wider audience and media. The Italian title (which means "noisy poison") was an hommage to the country that showed the biggest appreciations for Brychan's previous musical outings.
The album is extremely well received in Italy, and in UK too with Brychan playing at the Welsh acoustic festival called "Snowdonation" along with Stereophonics, The Levellers and Mike Peters.
An Italian summer festival Tour confirm the strength of his acoustic shows even in oper air arenas and in front of very big audiences. For the first time there are dates in the deep south of Italy: Calabria, very close to Sicily. In those unique settings Brychan ends the tour jamming on stage with one of Italy's most popular bands: II Parto delle Nuvole Pesanti, starting an interesting collaboration.
Towards the end of 1999 the second album "Vexed Fanatica" is released: 14 songs, mostly acoustic but musically richer than Veleno rumoroso. Hailed by exceltent reviews the new recording is supported by a big tour: 40 gigs in one year where Brychan meets again with Mimmo Mellace, drummer-percussionist of Il Parto Delle Nuvole Pesanti and now a permanent member of Brychan’s band. Every venue is packed and the tour is championed by the Italian press as one of the best of the year.
Brychan decides to release a record just for the Italian market: half of it recorded live in Italy with Mimmo Mellace, half in the studio (in Italy) with Welsh musicians.
The album is titled “Bad Pink Vibe”, released in March 2001, and takes Brychan’s Italian popularity even further.
With 2 videos on heavy rotation on the main Italian music televisions, Brychan's start his biggest tour ever with a 4-piece band..
The music is now an unique blend of rock, funk, folk and jazz that is sometimes compared to the likes of Ani Di Franco and Jeff Buckley.
One of the most remarkable moments of the year is when Brychan play to 2000 people in the beautiful Verona square and is joined on stage by US guitarist Randy Bernsen (Jaco Pastorius, Joe Zawinul, Herbie Hancock).
2002 was spent writing the new album and collaborating with Italian instrumental post-rock band Votiva Lux: Brychan recorded vocals for the opening track "Ffair".
Out of the song a video and a single were released receiving national airplay and amazing press feedback.
The new album titled "Real in Between" was recorded over 3 months with various guest musicians and the Italian release is expected for late October 2003.
"Real in between" is a breathtaking record and features Brychan's best compositions and a sound which mixes organic/electronic instruments, horns and strings.
