Born in Ohio, Brian started recording at an early age (see below).
After recording 'Ariel' and 'Done Dog Brown' with his band, Shave Librarian in the early 90's at the famous Recording Workshop in Chillicothe, OH, Brian moved to Boston, MA and has since written/recorded/produced the critically acclaimed albums, 'The Butter Thief' ('97), 'God Of Rain' (2000) and 'Uncle Joe' (single from the movie, '20 Questions') ('03) all with various line-ups of his band, Shave Librarian.
Inspired by America's Bicentennial year, he wrote and recorded a self-titled album, SailorSam (2012).
His latest band incarnation is Echo Detective. This amazing line-up released their debut CD, 'Glass Cat' in 2017. They are currently in the studio recording the follow-up CD, 'Love In The 21st Century'.
