BRËN's Bio

BRËN is an Alernative Rock
singer-songwriter similar to acts such as
Breaking Benjamin, Dream Theater, and Alice In Chains and calls Southern California home.

As an Alumnus of the Vocal Institute of Technology and
Recording Artist Program at
Musician's Institute in Hollywood, California,
BRËN has had the opportunity to study
and interact with some of the Music Industry's most respected veterans, such as
“The Musician's Handbook” author and UCLA Lecturer, Bobby Borg, ‘Cher’ Producer Ritchie Zito,
and critically acclaimed Grammy Winning song-writer, Michael Anderson.

BRËN began his musical journey in orchestral
and drumline settings as a charter member of his
high school's music department, participating in
many of the region’s competitions and being an active
part of an award-winning team, garnering
praise at both regional and state levels.

After graduating from high school, he attended
Musician's Institute. During that time, BRËN was the drummer
for the Los Angeles-based metal band, Rattlehead, headlining every major venue on the Sunset Strip on peak
nights in prime time slots (most notably
the ‘Whisky A Go-Go’
and the coveted ‘Key Club’).

BRËN was afforded the opportunity to not only study the
technical aspects of musicianship and
song-writing at Musician's Institute, but also
gained real-world experience from his employment with Rattlehead.

BRËN's debut solo album, "Anywhere But Here...", is unique because he performs all the instruments and vocals
on the album while utilizing the tools and skills acquired
at Musician's Institute. BRËN is optimistic
about "Anywhere But Here..." which even before its completion has already generated some buzz,
prompting BRËN to "kick it into high gear" by taking his personal art project (his songs) and transforming it into a viable product. He recently completed shooting music videos for his first two singles for the anticipated release, the songs "Epic" and "Worth The Weight."

In today's artistically arid musical climate BRËN is being hailed already as a "fresh, new voice" by his fans and peers for his unique vocal and musical style by blending Alternative Rock, Progressive Rock, Neo-Classical, and Popular music together and coupling them with meaningful, relevant lyrics for the explicit purpose of engaging and inspiring his listeners.
