The Campfire That Just Won’t Burn!
Backroads Brent stopped in Lillooet in September 2020 at the Texas Creek campsite. Be darned if this campfire would stay burning. Blast it with some oxygen, burst into flames, then...10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the fire stops burning! Backroads scratches his head and wondered why. This must be shared!

Dr. Karona V. Fever

Waiting on the Bright Side
I challenged myself to write and record a song using only MIDI. "Waiting on the Bright Side" is the result. A gentle easy listening instrumental created with my keyboard and Mixcraft program. Waiting on the bright side is waiting for the virus scare to end and the bright life to begin again. Waiting for the Backroads Brent journey to begin!

Message from the Boss. April 9th, 2020.
Due to the Coronavirus the Backroads Brent cross country van tour has been delayed. For how long, who knows? Until things get back to normal. In the meantime Brent will continue to write and record original music. And do other stuff.
Just One Time Too Many Times
I know this isn't a traveling song but the virus scare spring of 2020 had postponed travel; so I wrote and recorded this song after I received a phone call from a certain you-know-who ... a ghost from the past. Too easy to start all that again... To hard to stop. "This tale has no ending if beginning ain't born."

It Is What It Is
I was starting to write an instrumental track for the upcoming CD, "the adventures of Backroads Brent," when I realized I already have an excellent instrumental song. I re-recorded, "It Is What It Is," a song from the 2003 Brent & Woofy CD, "Under A Star."You will recognize this song as the theme song of the Brent & Woofy Radio Show. (2007-2013.) It will make an excellent addition to the new Backroads Brent CD. Thanks to Scott MacLeod for supplying the excellent bass track.

bbshows Characters bid Bon Voyage to Backroads Brent
Since 1993 I have been dressing up in costumes and performing music and comedy entertainment. Now that I am very close to starting my new adventure, driving a van across Canada, I wonder if I should hang on to these costumes or retire them. A friend suggested I take pictures and videos to have a digital record of the various outfits. So I did just that! In this video some of my costume characters bid Bon Voyage to Backroads Brent. Now the costumes and characters will retire. The question I get asked the most, "Is Woofy retiring?" The answer is in this video, near the end!
