Though his first group, Sounds Of Harmony, failed to be his ticket to superstardom, he has embarked on a unique journey that few could dream of. He has toured the world and shared the stage alongside iconic pop superstars including Michael Jackson, Christina Aguilera and Anastacia. He was a a crowd favorite and emerged as one of the TOP 12 Finalists in American Idol’s Season Six Finale seen by over 35 million viewers. In 2008, Brandon’s new music came to the attention of friend and Authentik Artists CEO Scott Austin who quickly signed him to a recording deal. His debut single “Broken” was released August 19, 2008 and has received numerous features and critical praise due to the very heartfelt and timely message of the song’s lyrics. Brandon is excited to share his new music with all of his adoring fans.
