ABOUT

Brandon Derek Wrinn is a Nashville bassist and songwriter. He has been playing music since the age of 7 and has been in the music industry, professionally, since 2007. He has toured and played music since age 16. In 2007 after years of being told it was a pipe dream, he decided to follow his calling and stop dreaming. Brandon spent 2007, 2008, and 2009 mainly in the Nashville Christian music scene. In late 2009 he decided to make a full transition into the country music scene. Brandon was called to audition for Nashville Country Artist Sara Wilson and landed the gig. He spent 2010 touring the U.S. playing on her summer tour. In late August, Brandon was recruited as bassist and band leader by Nashville Country Artist/Producer Jacob Rice to go on his tour which spanned from October 2010 to May 2011. Brandon is still currently Jacob's band leader, bassist, and studio bassist and is touring as bassist for Universal Music Artist Lauren Alaina. Since June 2011 Brandon's main focus has been session work and songwriting with minimal touring. He has performed on many demos written by top hit writers such as Ben Hayslip, Jimmy Yeary, Sarah Buxton, and artist/country great David Lee Murphy [Dust On The Bottle, Party Crowd]. Many of the demos that Brandon has played on have gone straight into the hands of major label artists including Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Chris Janson, Rascal Flatts, and a recent song that was demo'd, written, and recorded by Country Artist Tyler Farr to be released at a later date. He has many writing/ghostwriting credits as well.

In Brandon's 15 years, at a semi-pro/professional capacity, he has been fortunate enough to tour all over the country with Country Music Artists Sarah Wilson, Greylan James Band, and Jacob Rice; Christian Music groups Raimah, Jamison, Six Steps, Empty Chair, and the FaithQuake Worship Band; appeared with Lee Gibson, Nicole Cooper and the Jam, Chris Brade, Billy Ryan Droze, Jamie Harvill, Vicki Rae, Dru Blake, Sage and the Saints, and is a member of the South Jackson Goes Country House Band. Brandon has shared the stage with Acts such as Todd Agnew, Mercy Me, Eli Young Band, Wanda Jackson (Queen of Rock and Roll), Craig Morgan, David Nail, Lee Brice, Jamie Harvill, Echoing Angels, Joy Whitlock and Jessie James, as well as played the Pre-show concert for Miranda Lambert, Chris Young , and Jerrod Niemann.
