Brannan has performed in the USA, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. He
has been performing music for 26 years. At age 13, he started performing
in night clubs and private parties in his father’s jazz big band and combo
bands. At 17 years old, Brannan started college on a full scholarship with
a double major in piano and percussion.
Brannan draws from a wide range of influences. His debut solo release,
Caribbean Dream, illustrates some of these diverse elements of
Brannan’s musical palette. Words like contemporary, world, ambient,
new age or jazz, would be used to describe different tracks. Caribbean
Dream reached # 10 on the NAV Top 100 Airwaves. (NAV is a
magazine out of Atlanta, GA that tracks air play of new age and world
music in the USA, Canada and seven other countries!) This air play
helped Brannan’s record label, World Circle Records, to receive
distribution in all the major book and record stores in the USA, Canada, and on
the World Wide Web.
Brannan makes his living as a full time musician. He works regularly
with pop and country star, Skeeter Davis, performing weekly radio and
TV shows at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, TN. He records and works
with a band from Baton Rough, LA., Delicious Blues Stew (now
conveniently living in Nashville). Currently the Stew is recording their
third release. You can hear Brannan on the latest release from the Music
City Blues Society, and he has been recording Americana music in
Nashville, TN and Austin, TX for The Ballistic Pintos debut release,
Pintomania. He also performs live gigs with the Pintos.
Brannan also provides material or can produce customized music for
motion pictures, documentary films, computer games, TV movies &
shows, soap operas, TV & radio commercials and CD ROMs. He is
currently working on two more solo projects to be released soon!
"I want to thank everybody for all their support and help, thank you so
much."
