Brian picked the guitar at 12, began more serious self-study of music at 14 and from there never really looked back. Throughout school most of his spare time was consumed by his passion for music. While studying yoga in the Laurentians, Brian was introduced to Kirtan, or group singing of Sanskrit verses and learned how to play the harmonium.
His intricate, delicate guitar work coupled with sweet soulful vocals and solid song structure identified him as an exceptional young talent, and his live outdoor performances draw in listeners from blocks away. Brian is a unique and gifted musician who will surely have a long and bright future as a performer.
