Americana Singer/Songwriter, originally from Nashville who credits Chicago as the place he rediscovered his southern roots. "I had to come North to find the South and write what I know." The miles between his lives as an entertainer are diverse, but these days, his “maturity” directs him toward honesty in the lyrics he writes, the songs he sings, and the true tales he spins.
As a songwriter, Brian has been influenced by Rodney Crowell, Nanci Griffith, "early" Larry Gatlin, and most recently the music of Patty Griffin.
