LANCO: The Story Telling Aspect

LANCO‘s hit song “Greatest Love Story” is a song that tells a story, because that’s what the song’s writer, and singer, Brandon Lancaster does…he writes stories! Brandon recalls first coming up with the musical tale, “It was a beautiful story that just I was in love with, and I remember thinking, if I could do that, if I could tell that story… cause I’m a story teller I love to get around with my friends and tell stories and talk… I remember thinking, if I could do that with music, that would be a dream come true.” Telling stories like this through music is just another reason that Brandon loves, and makes country music, “the only place you can really do that still is country music and that’s what made country music so unique from the beginning and such a staple was the stories that it was telling of these people that they found when the artist sings there’s lots of other people up there that have the same story and relate to it, so for me it’s just… country music is so beautiful when it comes to the story telling aspect and it’s such a staple with country music and to know that we have a song that is a story that people are relating to, is really just such an honor and could only happen really in country music.” Check out LANCO’s music and the video for “Greatest Love Story” at LANCO Music dot com, or just click HERE
