That is to say, Brandi has done well because she both is good and does good. As for the rest of those characteristics, they come into incredibly sharp focus in Broken Horses which is a thoroughly compelling series of snapshots of a thoroughly compelling person and artist who was always destined for success, not just because of her immense talent, but also because of her steadfast values. She simply can’t help herself on either account. Likewise for the “striving” bit, when she’s caught singing a third harmony part along with an Indigo Girls live stream. If you’ve seen Brandi’s Instagram videos regarding sheet-folding, then that “fastidious” part rings true. Well-organized, orderly, and fastidious, they try to maintain high standards, but can slip into being critical and perfectionistic.” They are teachers, crusaders, and advocates for change: always striving to improve things, but afraid of making a mistake. Specifically, the 1 as her enneagram type: “Ones are conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. By what, I’m not completely sure, but touched, all the same.īut let’s back up a bit, because, when it comes to understanding Brandi, it’s best to start on the 1. Turns out, though, the real magic of her life is explained by numerous inexplicable moments - pivotal, life-defining, soul-stirring moments that definitely count as “mysteries,” with some seemingly coming close to “miracles.” On top of that, anyone who can write a line like “it smelled like music and dreams” to describe the backstage of a concert venue is touched. For the past 13 years, my suspicion was rooted merely in watching her, both up close and from a distance, cast a lasting spell on pretty much everyone who is lucky enough to step into her orbit. I’ve long suspected something about Brandi Carlile, but it wasn’t until I read her new memoir, Broken Horses, that I fully knew it to be true: She is the scrappiest mystic this side of G.I.
