Christopher Ian Brooker, who performs as Where Are We, is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia, and has been producing and releasing music for over a decade. His latest track, ‘Not My President<\/a>\"\"‘, is a contemporary electronic protest song, with a unique blend of indie rock and EDM.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

With a diverse skill set and songwriting roots which have led him down an unusual path, ‘Not My President’ is certainly a very interesting project for Were Are We, who has been for the past few years collaborating with filmmaker Tim Reis. This collaboration includes writing and producing scores for several of Reis’s films, and their most recent is Where Are We’s music video for ‘Not My President’.<\/p>\n

The track has a vibe which reminds listeners of Tame Impala and Arctic Monkeys – but there’s something more. In Where Are We’s own words,<\/p>\n

He records and mixes all his material himself, thereby maintaining creative freedom to choose his own direction, and if he so desires, to take another path entirely.<\/p>\n
