If video killed the radio star, no one told BRAN VAN 3000. They seem quite happy being both. So much has happened since BRAN VAN 3000 released their debut CD, GLEE. They've watched as their first single, Drinking In L.A., became a staple at stations like ENERGY 108 and climbed its way to #3 on the national campus charts. Shortly after, the video went straight into medium rotation at MUCHMUSIC and later, graduated to heavy. It was enough to make most bands swoon, let alone an independent vehicle like BV3 - but it was actually only beginning. Drinking In L.A.'s video garnered the band three nominations - and a chance to perform - at the 1997 MUCHMUSIC VIDEO AWARDS. They ended up scooping two of them for Best Dance Video and the Videofact Award. They've been fe More...

We gots the cushion. The quintessential distillation of the lonely Los Angeles dream | Reviewer: Charlie ------ About the song Drinking in L.A. performed by Bran Van 3000 "We found a conclusion, so I guess that's something..." At once bittersweet and cruel, mesmerizing and despairing, beautiful and cool and compassionate, the genius of "Drinking In L.A." is that you can experience a sunny Los Angeles day poured into your headphones like silk and cocaine: the warm sun, the untouchable palms, the cold emptiness of the perfection and wealth and endless asphalt, the stunned, anaesthetized desperation of the movie industry dreamers. Gorgeous. Back in the Day | Reviewer: Shawn ------ About the song Drinking in L.A. performed by Bran Van 3000 I absolutely LOVE this song. It has a sound like I've never heard in my life. It's groovy, it's danceable, it's sing-able, and it's soothing. This song captures the mood and cadence of the lifestyles of the poor and pathetic Hollywood wannabes (like myself) who feel like they're wandering aimlessly in pursuit of something they're likely to never have. What the hell AM I doing drinking in LA at 26...? I was not exposed to this song until I recently bought a compilation album (Big Shiny Tunes 2) that included it. I see much more Bran Van 3000 in my future, and I can't wait. That's assuming I don't waste my whole measly paycheck on Apple Martinis at Trader Vic's again...
