Artist History Brainwreck is the latest project from John Pointer, the the creator of the Austin, Texas based performance group Schrödinger's Cat. A multi-istrumentalist, he has once again picked up the guitar, detuned it like Michael Hedges, slapped it like a fresh young whippersnapper, and employed the stomp box and multi-timbral vocal tequniques he developed for Schrödinger's Cat to create the sound of a full band from the hands, feet, voice, and body of one man.

Instruments Vocals, stomp box, acoustic guitar, and beat box.

Albums Coming soon!
