Brandon’s musical journey began in a small Missouri town where the school choir program was the heart of the community. Growing up with the support of a passionate choir director, he quickly developed a deep love for music, starting with drums and eventually discovering the guitar at the age of 12. With a guitar that was gifted to him and a drive to learn, Brandon spent his teenage years perfecting his craft, teaching himself through online tutorials and relentlessly practicing in his room, all while his peers were watching the latest movies. His devotion to his music was clear—he wasn’t just playing instruments; he was building a future in music, one chord at a time.

At 16, he formed a band with friends and began performing locally, cementing his role as a committed musician. Upon graduation, he moved to Chicago to study audio production, eager to hone his skills and learn the professional side of music. Despite leaving college early to chase his musical dreams, Brandon’s time in Chicago was invaluable. It was a place that nurtured his creativity and connected him with other musicians, leading to his eventual move back and forth between Missouri and Chicago, following his heart wherever it took him.
