At 3:30pm on 2nd January 2000, we skimmed stones into the waves on Westernmouth beach. As the winter sun slanted in under a bank of black clouds, we vowed to embark on a bold venture: to live a meaningless, but comforting life, devoid of prospects and ambition, cradled in the bosom of soft Devon hills. So began The Dalwood Rocket.

The centre of things from where everything stems is not where The Dalwood Rocket belongs. We celebrate minor places, steeped in obscurity, perpetually off to one side. Dalwood could be anywhere, or it could be nowhere. If The Dalwood Rocket were a car it would be a 1966 Hillman Minx Estate lying mouldering in the corner of a Devon field. We will continue to make music that is empty of contemporary cultural relevance, aiming to capture the moment when a gentle breeze across the grass breaks the silence.

The Dalwood Rocket enjoys a sizable imaginary audience but suffers the occasional brush with real exposure through film and theatre commissions. Except in Egypt, where The Dalwood Rocket has a small and unexpected following through Soundcloud.

It took The Dalwood Rocket 19 years to write this Biog. The Dalwood Rocket does not have a Twitter account.

Born February 12, 1972, Brian Stewart Gager died on June 28, 2018 in Pittsburgh, PA. He attended The School of Fine Arts at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh and there earned a degree with honors in Music Composition.  He worked composing, recording, and mixing in NYC, mostly for television but he was most proud of an award for background music in a documentary about small parks and gardens in New York which ran at the New York Film Festival.  He spent many years back in Pittsburgh doing the same work.  

Along with many original songs and compositions, Brian composed an oratorio for children for the Lord of the Rings trilogy with Tolkien's poetry as the lyrics. His students at a Montessori school performed each work: https://soundcloud.com/brian-gager-851051760/sets/lotr-trilogy

Brian was a prolific composer, song-writer, recording artist, and multi-instrumentalist including guitar, piano, violin. He will be greatly missed.
