What do you mean by Brecht-inspired?

Music adapted from the work of Bertolt Brecht, a German playwright and composer of the early to mid twentieth century.
He's inspired a considerable amount of modern musicians.

How do you know which musicians he has inspired and which he hasn't?

The lyrics to the songs are Brecht's writings, Black Sun Productions released an homage album, and inspirations are often noted in interviews.
You can see further influence in a lot of Waits's work- fondness for the calliope exaggeratedly cynical lyricism, German screaming, etc.
