Do get to the heart of Boston country musician Annie Brobst s new album, “Where We Holler,” it s probably best to start in the middle with the the clever nod to her influences, “Amazing Greats.” The song takes a light hand to its interpretation of the gospel standard, “Amazing Grace,” while name checking a litany of country greats, including Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Alabama, John Prine and more. “Amazing Greats, the melodies they made,” sings Brobst, “We carry them to our grave/We once were lost, they paved our way/here would we be without amazing greats?”
Ambience Addition with Image Production Services and Chauvet Professional at Annie Brobst Livestream
USA – Over 1,700 miles separate Image Productions Services from Ryman Auditorium, but that didn’t matter much on Saturday January 23 when Annie Brobst and The Jake Ash Band took the stage at the improvised livestream studio in the company’s warehouse.
Brobst, the New England Country Music Awards Artist of the Year, and Ash’s band, which was formed by four firefighters from nearby Brockton, projected an unabashedly, down-home vibe that would have fit right in on Nashville’s Second Avenue. Reflecting the cheery mood, Brobst even raised a glass to the audience in honour of her hit “Red Wine On Her Mind.”

Brobst, the New England Country Music Awards Artist of the Year, and Ash’s band, which was formed by four firefighters from nearby Brockton, projected a down-home vibe that would have fit right in on Nashville’s Second Avenue. Contributing to the welcoming atmosphere of the pay-per-view show was a warm and immersive lighting and video design by Darren Lussier and his team at Image Production Services that featured 44 Chauvet Professional fixtures and a collection of PVPX3 LED video panels.
