"Broken Too Long" showcases Bernie Chiaravalle's independent rock spirit

Something is compelling about hearing a song built completely by one artist's creative hands. Singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer Bernie Chiaravalle's self-produced release, "Broken Too Long," puts him squarely in the middle of the music.

Chiaravalle of Marin County, California, just north of San Francisco, comes to the track as both a performer and creator. He does all the vocals and instruments himself, so "Broken Too Long" has a very personal identity, crafted by the vision of one artist. One of the more interesting things about the release is the hands-on approach. It's a perfect encapsulation of his art, where all the vocals and all the instruments come from the same place.

The rock foundation gives the release a direct musical identity, and Chiaravalle's background as a guitarist and songwriter naturally brings his musicianship to the forefront of the track. As producer, he takes his creative input even further, making the song more than a performance. "Broken Too Long" is a standalone bit of rock music that has a definite sense of ownership. It proves that Bernie Chiaravalle is an involved artist, making his music from the beginning to the end.
