Since 2010, Brennan has produced over forty records by international artists from five continents (Africa, Europe, North and South America, Asia) which have resulted in the first widely-released, original music albums from many nations, among them Rwanda, Malawi, South Sudan, Azerbaijan, Comoros, Suriname, Romania, São Tomé, and Vietnam.
His work has been featured on the front-page of the New York Times, PBS television, CNN Live, and in an Emmy-winning segment of "60 Minutes" with Anderson Cooper reporting.
Brennan has worked with artists as diverse as country legend Merle Haggard and filmmaker John Waters (whom he has produced live comedy shows for since 2001, starting at the Castro Theatre, a bill on which Brennan booked Tammy Faye Bakker as the opener).
Most famously, Brennan arranged and produced the music for Food Not Bombs' 20th anniversary free show in Dolores Park featuring Fugazi, Sleater-Kinney, and the late singer-songwriter, Vic Chestnut. He also produced Green Day's free concert on the steps of SF City Hall on the eve of George W. Bush Jr's election as President.
