Artist Biography
The fictional character of David Brent was created by comedian Ricky Gervais in 2001. First appearing in the BBC mockumentary The Office, he quickly gained attention for his socially awkward behavior and tendency to create embarrassing situations. Ten years after the television show ended, Brent returned, this time with a charity single for Comic Relief called "Equality Street." In 2013, Gervais devised a web series, Learn Guitar with David Brent, presented as five-minute YouTube videos. In 2016, Gervais expanded on Brent's foray into music with a feature-length film, Life on the Road. The film detailed Brent taking his band, Foregone Conclusion, on a local tour of Berkshire. The soundtrack was released simultaneously and featured a mixture of new material and updated older songs. ~ Liam Martin
