Hey hey! Bonjour! Hope you enjoy my music. Cheers Brian
After moving to Australia from New Zealand in 1980, he played with many Australian bands, securing a Sony recording deal with "The Ones" in 1986 after signing publishing with Rondor Music. Around this time he scored his first song placement on the second UnCanny X-Men album, with the song "Colour Your Answer Blue". After writing and recording top 20 single “Heart” with The Ones he went on to co write the score for the movie "Rikki and Pete" with Eddie Rayner from Split Enz.
Eddie and Brian continued to work together as "The Makers", releasing 2 CDs through Warner's East West label, including the hit single and video “Big Picture”. Together with drummer Michael Barker, they toured Australia and New Zealand with the B52's and appeared on TV shows like MTV, Countdown, Hey Hey It's Saturday, Tonight Live and The Midday Show.
Brian offers his expertise from his recording studio “The Bakery”, producing other artists, co-writing and assisting with songwriting and recording.
Brian is proudly signed to Origin Music. He still occasionally works with Eddie and is continuing to find creative peaks, releasing great new songs regularly.
On January 1st 2021 Brian emerged from NZ Managed Isolation Quarantine in Auckland to begin living back in NZ. He’s currently setting up a permaculture farm and recording studio in Northland.

“To enlighten each other. To serve the earth. Bring an open heart. Brian”
