Namesakes #118: Brett Anderson

Usually I feature bands who share the same name, but this week, because it's New Year's Eve and nobody will be reading anyway, here's a few pop performers with the same name.

The guy at the top of the page is former Aussie rugby league player, Brett Anderson, who has not, to my knowledge, ever recorded any music.

Here though, are some Brett Andersons that have...

 

BRETT ANDERSON #1

We'll start with the one most of you know. He's the lead singer of Suede, who shared their own Namesakes back in May 2023

Suede - Saturday Night

BRETT ANDERSON #2

Next up, we have a Brett Anderson from Bloomington, Indiana... aka Donna A, because she's the lead singer of The Donnas.

The Donnas - Take It Off

BRETT ANDERSON #3

Our third Brett is from West Plains, Missouri. He's the lead guitarist of the group Ha Ha Tonka, and also a singer-songwriter on his own.

Ha Ha Tonka - Race To The Bottom

BRETT ANDERSON #4

Our fourth Brett is the lead singer of Australian Hardcore/Metalcore band Buried In Verona. Bit noisy for me, but I liked this song title...

Buried In Verona - Colonel Mustard In The Conservatory With The Lead Pipe

Discogs lists 14 different Brett Andersons and one Bret Anderson, but these were the only ones who I could find tunes from. 

But which Brett is the best Anderson?

  3. obviously #1 for me too but coming in second is the Brett at #2. Expected her to be in a country band when I saw the picture. How wrong I was.

    Happy New Year for when it comes Rol.

  4. Just popping back before 2024 fades into the distance - thank you Rol for another year of brilliant, inspired and thought-provoking blogging and for giving me the best reason to set the alarm on a Saturday morning.
    Happy New Year to you and yours!
