The David Motel is the latest project from singer/songwriter 
David Brooks. "Ain't that How It Goes" is taken from his debut 
album People, Places, Things, which offers tales of weariness 
originating from too many nights spent in hotel rooms, too much heartbreak, the inevitable passage of time, and the unceasing struggle to keep up. Chronicling the transition from collegiate life in Baton Rouge to urban professional life in Nashville, the album thematically doubles as a geographic passport for Brooks and his life experiences over the past decade.

"These songs embody the roller coaster of emotions I've experienced over the last several years. There have been highs and lows. And this collection really puts that journey into perspective," says Brooks.

Recorded in Nashville, Tennessee with producer and songwriter 
David Coleman (The Coal Men), the album features twelve tracks that weave together a variety of Americana influences, from roots rockers, wistful ballads, mid-tempo country and even soothsaying celebratory numbers with influences
including Weezer, Radiohead and Ryan Adams.
