The LA based producer and songwriter, who&#8217;s best known as a session guitarist, trained at the Berklee School Of Music, is incredibly well connected, and that&#8217;s how he joined forces with collaborators Justin Gariano, Dusty Schaller, and vocalist\/keyboardist Steve Maggiora, on his debut album, &#8216;If You Say So&#8217;. The album is not just an homage to his network of talented friends, but also his broad range of influences. The album, which contains Van Halen-esque riffs, and bluesy dance-along classics, was mixed and mastered by Grammy-winners Ross Hogarth and Richard Dodd, respectively, and serves as a showcase for Philbrick&#8217;s eclectic guitar style.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8216;Losing Out To Crazy&#8217;, lifted from the album, is a strutting and screeching rock track, serving as a platform for Pilbrick to vent his frustration at the madness of the status quo. Over a foundation of unrelenting chords and pounding drums, lead vocalist Steve Maggiora roars out in angst, and effectively mimicking the emotional shrieks of Philbrick&#8217;s guitar. He begs for a return to peace, love, faith, and above all else, brotherhood. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official lyric video for &#8216;Losing Out To Crazy&#8217; offers a deeper aspect to the track. As Maggiora&#8217;s powerful words appear on screen, the clip shows an empty, red-saturated Los Angeles. It&#8217;s unsure if the scenes are showing a post-apocalyptic view of the city, or if it&#8217;s merely shot before the dawn, but one way or the other we&#8217;re standing on the precipice of choice, as we decide whether to let the crazy take over, or instead, wake up to a new way of being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can watch the lyric video for &#8216;Losing Out To Crazy&#8217; below.
