Isaiah Brown

I was told all my life I couldn't be a singer, a musician, a guitar player, or an artist because of many who found a need to bring me down to bring themselves up. I was surrounded by hate and negative comments, ensuring that I could never do what I loved. It was summer of 2015 when I decided that the only person I will have when everyone else moves on is me, and the most important thing I could do is stay true to myself. So I picked up a guitar, learned some chords, taught myself what sounded good, and went from there. I took countless singing lessons, practiced and self-taught the guitar, and described every emotion and experience I could muster on as many pieces of paper that I could find. After a long year of work, I had written 15 songs that I could appreciate, and I took the steps to record, mix, and co-produce my debut album 'Healing Hands.' As it released November 1st, I did everything--from hanging up posters across my town to advertising across the internet--to promote my work. My Instagram presence continues to grow as I post weekly covers to engage a common audience, and I continue to work on new songs, progressions and tablature that best exemplify who I am as an artist and as a person. In a world where Independent musicians require patience, constant rejection, and money from day jobs, I strive to change the way our industry sees music. Rather than a regurgitation of what was popular, I write and create to connect with an audience and share an emotion through music, which in turn creates the most memorable songs. All I need now is solid partnership with those in the position to get my art heard and recognized, and we can change the world.
