George FitzGerald - "Mother (feat. SYML)" a 2023 single from Domino Records. British DJ/producer George FitzGerald teams up with SYML (aka Seattle's own Brian Fennell) for today's Song of the Day. The track can be found on FitzGerald's most recent EP Not As I, out now via Domino Records's imprint label, Double Six. “Collaborating with SYML on this EP was a real joy.” Fitzgerald says in a press release. “I actually reached out to him a few years ago to see if he was interested in writing together. He's an amazing lyricist and has a distinctive vocal tone, and I felt it would match my music really beautifully. Still, it took me quite a while to get to a place where I could finish the track, but sometimes you just have to let things take their course and not force them. Hopefully, you can hear some of that patience in this track.” Read the full story at KEXP.orgSupport the show: https://www.kexp.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 SYML is the moodier solo venture of Barcelona frontman and Seattle native Brian Fennell. As SYML, Fennell is more textural and sensory than Barcelona's piano rock, framing his quiet, introspective songwriting in low-key synth-augmented soundscapes with austere piano parts and spectral vocals. Debuting in 2016 with the Hurt for Me EP, SYML found success with song placements in a number of high-profile television shows like Elementary, Scream, and Teen Wolf. Subsequent singles "The War" and "Mr. Sandman," a surprisingly dour cover of the 1950s doo wop chestnut, found SYML exploring heavy and ominous themes, though his 2017 follow-up, "Where's My Love," was an altogether more buoyant, folk-inspired track. "Where's My Love" proved to be a hit for SYML and over the next year, it was rolled out in a variety of different forms including an acoustic version, a solo piano version, a Sam Feldt electronic remix, and a duet with Lily Kershaw. The original mix appeared on SYML's 2018 EP, In My Body. In 2019, Fennell issued his eponymous full-length debut SYML. 

SYML is the solo venture of Brian Fennell, he's just released his solo debut and came to talk Maz through it.

In this episode, once again, we return to the subject of cycling. Our guest, Fiola Foley, has a great deal of experience when it comes to all aspects of cycling and the outdoors. In her outstanding career, Fiola has been a pro athlete, worked as a race organizer and spent time working for BMC Switzerland, a world-leading performance cycling brand. Currently, she is the Communications and PR manager for Komoot, an outdoors app. During the podcast, we talk about bicycle manufacturing and what happens to the bicycle at the end of its life. We discuss land access issues and the availability of mountain bike trails in Ireland. We talk about racing up and down Ireland’s highest mountain peak, Carrauntoohil. We also mention the importance of Recreation Officers in county councils. (Listen to episode 22 where I talk to Brian Fennell, one of the few Recreation Officers in Ireland.) Obviously, we also discuss Komoot and how it can help us experience the outdoors.

The piano pop music project known as SYML was born when Brian Fennell (from the Seattle indie rock band Barcelona) wrote some solo material and this music was instantly placed in MTV's Teen Wolf series. After that, SYML released two EPs and you've probably heard Brian's music in many more of your favorite TV shows--in the scene where your favorite couple finally get together or the scene where the serial killer finally strikes. I hung out backstage at Vancouver's contemporary arts theatre and gallery, The Cultch, with Brian the day his second EP In My Body was released. He's a really pleasant guy, considering he often jokes that he's the "sad song guy." How do you say "SYML" and what does it mean? What other name did Brian nearly choose for this project? What strange connection does SYML have with 90s classic rock alternative band Third Eye Blind? What's it like to have your music in all your favorite TV shows? Does he have a nightmare scenario list to create more "sad" songs? Does Brian really have an irrational fear of bees? Why did he cover that old "Mr. Sandman" song? What made him cover Neil Young? Why was Brian once banned from Canada? You'll have to listen to find out.

SYML is the creation of singer-songwriter, Brian Fennell – a Seattle native and founding member of the indie-rock band Barcelona. In 2016 Fennell released his first solo EP apart from his band of over ten years; and quickly discovered overwhelming success at television and film. His single ‘Where’s my love’ accrued millions of streams in a matter of months, as Fennell seems to have almost accidentally found new musical life in a side project that was originally intended to be just that. Listen as Andrew meets up with Brian at his west Hollywood hotel to find out more about what it was growing up in the pacific northwest and the meals he remembers the most.
