“Once you accept Bravado’s obnoxious exterior as honest – and yes, brave – the record’s humanity is unlocked. Repeat listens reveal Bravado as one of the most

addictive and affecting pop records of the year, a deeply personal work and appeal to the world.”

- The FADER

“the songs are simply an extension of the man himself, an anything goes provocateur whose live shows are shocking and showy, brash and bold, and whose entire persona

borders on parody.” - Under The Radar on Bravado

“"It’s hard to imagine anyone loving every moment on such a perversely disparate record but it’s equally hard to imagine anyone being less than dazzled. No kidding."

- The Guardian on Bravado

Today, Kirin J. Callinan shares the video for “The Whole of the Moon,” the first release from his forthcoming album via Terrible Records. “The Whole of the Moon,” produced by Francois Tetaz (Gotye), is a melodramatic, heart wrenching rendition of The Waterboys classic. The video, directed by Michael Hili, was conceptualized, shot, and created in a single day in New York City, and features Callinan adorned in various retro-inspired outfits while using dramatic stage blocking. Kirin J Callinan is an apex predator. A butterfly. A grassfire. A beautiful baby boy wandered curiously into trouble. You're listening to something very specific when you're hearing Kirin J express himself. And you're right to be wondering if this mania, this insanity, this total abandon exists within all of us. Makes you wonder if you've just missed out. If you're a coward for never trying. If you were ever on the field in the first place. Out there is a pendulum that swings recklessly between madness and precision. “The Whole Of The Moon” marks Callinan’s return and follows two albums of inimitable, challenging pop music that garnered global acclaim and proclaimed him as an entirely unique, singular talent. His trademark frenetic energy is cut with a determination to do justice to a song he holds in high regard. Hectic gives way to humanity.
