COLLECTIONS 1: Best described as ambient electronic music, the songs on 'Collections 1' represent just some of the music Brad has been writting since the 80's but kept in his head until now. "... It's an experimental mix of music that features both slow and fast paced tracks with subtle overtones of dance, ambient, lounge, background, new age & minor orchestral. " explains Brad when attempting to describe his debut CD.

ABOUT BRAD:
Brad is a Tacoma Washington Native and started playing Piano in the mid 1970's. He learned on a Yamaha Baby Grand his parents bought for him when he was about 7 years old. Finding it too difficult to read sheet music Brad would often play by ear instead or create his own versions of songs he was trying to learn. A lot of the music on "Collections 1" were songs he wrote as a kid and kept in his head for years until he finaly re-composed them on his KORG Triton Studio in 2005 & 2006. Today Brad draws most of his inspiration from music that does not conform to mainstream commercial standards.
