Brooke Burgess

The Toby Gribben Show Highlights - A podcast by Shout Radio

Categories:

After 25 years in the entertainment industry writing, directing, and producing videogame, animation, interactive narrative and audio projects, this award-winning Canadian creator kills two bucket-list birds with one stone: 1) make epic cross-genre music + video project and (far more importantly)…become a Dad.  While others baked quarantine sourdough or caught virtual fish in Animal Crossing, Burgess (Electronic Arts, Broken Saints, The Cat’s Maw, Buddha and the S**t) wrote, produced, shot, edited, recorded, and mixed the lion’s share of DADBOD while stuck in Southeast Asia during ‘peak pandemic’. And now? Nearly two decades on from a win at the Sundance Film Festival that launched a storied interactive narrative career, these 20 songs and videos are more than just a mid-life singer/songwriter flex — they’re the legend of an incredible boy, the man transformed by his love, and the kind of bond that comes around one in a thousand lifetimes. Oh…and dinosaurs.  When Brooke isn’t getting spiritually schooled by his toddler super-Buddha or pushing back the date of his next novel, he’s the Narrative Director for a groundbreaking ‘wellness technology’ firm in the Netherlands.
