Bryan is a gifted, self-taught musician who
began his musical career on an old
Hammond organ at the age of 12. Most of
his teenage years were spent in front of
his keyboard and he was multitrack
recording by the time he was 15.
So proficient is he playing his instrument, the keyboard, that it has
become a physical extension of his mind and imagination. His creativity
is unique and he has an incredible ability to transform simple tunes into
masterpieces. Bryans speed and diversity is nothing short of amazing
with his ability to produce music in almost any genre - from full orchestral
through to rock, jazz, country and contemporary. The speed at which
Bryan is able to compose is equally astounding - sit back and listen as
within minutes, tracks are composed and pieced together with precision
to produce the most incredible results.
Thoughout his life, Bryan has performed on a worldwide stage and has
now settled in and enjoying the country life in North-West Australia. Bryan
and his studio SpinFX Audio are a true asset to the Pilbara region and
Western Australia.
