Bryan currently resides in Brooklyn. He gigs regularly around New York with his trio affectionately called "Dodging Lions". You can hear them in venues such as The Living Room, Banjo Jims, The Bitter End, Kenny's Castaways, Sidewalk Cafe, National Underground, Roots Cafe, Fifth Estate and others. Bryan is currently working on a full length album entitled "Lion Named Bryan", which is due for release this year.

Born into a musical family Bryan began studying guitar with a local nun at a very early age. After several years he set down his guitar to concentrate his talents on classical composition and percussion. This won him several awards and scholarships which allowed him to travel and perform in Europe and Scandinavia, making stops in Germany, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Spain and Italy. In his late teens Bryan spent a few years playing straight ahead jazz drums serving as a sideman, and fronting his own group "House Of Jade". By his early-twenties Bryan returned to his first love, the guitar, and has not looked back since. This love was rekindled while working with Massive Attack singer Stephanie Dosen, touring extensively in the Chicago/Milwaukee area. While working with bluesmen Matt Hendricks and Brew City Junior, Bryan began to develop and craft his guitar playing style, which became defined by the blues stylings he was immersed in while performing with the two. Upon relocating to New York City, Bryan began focusing heavily on writing and performing original material. Through the creative process he began to find and develop his own unique voice. Although there are still identifiable jazz and blues elements in these compositions, his songwriting has begun to shift toward a more introspective, serious, and at times comical style.
