translation-
"Notes that are more hypnotic than raindrops. The sweet melancholy this record put me in replaced today’s “good morning”. For some unknown reason I got mad at the sun again, for refusing to come out, and take away the darkness and anything else that brings this blurred vision."

Woodall's recently released six-track CD, "Trouble on the Land," is a beautifully produced collection of sweet, somber and melodic songs that showcase his soaring vocals.

New York, NY-October 24, 2005

According to the judges at last Thursday's Independent Music World Series for the Northeast, singer/songwriter Brice Woodall is one of the hottest acts out there right now. Handpicked and having gone through the process of elimination with TAXI and Billboard Magazine, Brice Woodall was awarded the grand prize of $35,000 worth of music and recording equipment on Thursday, October 20, 2005.
One of the most compelling showcases of up and coming independent music, the Disc Maker's IMWS helps artists get a chance to perform in front of music industry executives while at the same time giving them a chance to win over $35,000 in recording gear, instruments, CD manufacturing services, DJ equipment, and memberships. Disc Makers hosts showcases in New York City, San Francisco, Chicago, and Nashville. Professional A&R screeners from TAXI listen to each submission and select 100 semi-finalists from each region, and the editors of Billboard magazine choose the top six finalists to showcase in front of fans and industry judges.
Discmakers hosted the event along with sponsors such as Billboard, TAXI, Shure, Fender, Sabian, Sonicbids, Remo, Electronic Musician, Dean Markley, dw drums, IK Multimedia, and Alienware.

Chicago, IL – Richmond native Brice Woodall has found a new home with Columbia College Chicago’s AEMMP Records.
The upcoming release of Brice and the Positrons’ AEMMP debut will follow a cutting edge friendly approach to the environment and convenient for fans. The decline of CD sales and the rise of digital sales in the industry factored into the decision to release the new album as a digital download. There will be a limited supply of physical CD’s available to fans, and those CD’s will be packaged in 100% recyclable cardboard. Brice, the Positrons, and AEMMP Records are mindful of the environment and are looking to make a large imprint on the industry while making our carbon footprint smaller.

The Chicago Tribune calls Brice "one of ’five standouts from the local scene." XMU DJ Josiah calls Brice’s song "Redwoods": "my favorite single track of the year". Brice’s ethereal compositions have caused many fans to take notice.
Brice has developed a following across the country with his 2006 critically acclaimed release of Feathery Trigger. He recently returned from a successful run of shows in England, and while there, he performed at the Third Annual Worldspace Sessions at Abbey Road Studio 2. The event was aired March 15th XM Satellite Radio’s UPOP channel 29.

AEMMP Records will be hosting a party to celebrate the signing of Brice Woodall and the Positrons at the Rhythm Café at 62 W. Huron Chicago, IL on April 17, 2008.

A snippet from a live review in the January Performer Magazine-
"...Just being nearby felt like levitating across some uncharted galaxy, an alien expanse – you don’t know quite where you’ve gotten to but you’re glad you made it there. His songs are lullabies for sad robots, an enchanting metal- lic melancholy."-Sasha Geffen

The latest from Brice Woodall and the Positrons plays like a free trip to the edges of the atmosphere. While Woodall's voice and elegantly wrought keyboard lines could easily be enough to lead a listener through such a record, the extra punch from the rest of the band does great things for the sound. The contrast between the eerie synthesized treble and classic rock instruments constructs a complex bio-mechanical sonic sphere that's all-over charming and at points stunning. Opener "45 Degrees" epitomizes the playful side of Woodall's songwriting (complete with whistle solo). It begins as somewhat tinny electropop, lyrically endearing and catchy, and evolves into a fully realized soundscape with the inclusion of well-mixed bass and drums midway through. Woodall's vibrato sounds fantastic swathed in the organic overtones of the low end as he carries the song to its finish.
Several moments of the EP push it beyond the charms of its genre. "Trampoline" floats high above the rest of the tracks as the record's zenith. Through its simplicity it becomes utterly ethereal. It sounds as though someone took all the weight out of a Portishead track and let it fly away like a lost balloon. Woodall's voice and synth cycle through the stratosphere completely unburdened by anything real. It's an out-of-body experience, a departure from the weight of materiality, innocent and carefree and gorgeous. It's a three and a half minute visit to a swing's zero-gravity peak.

A Tiny Gleam of Light is a lovely little adventure waiting to happen: an otherworldly excursion on the jets of six delicately constructed folktronica tracks. Forget the world and go. (Self Released)
