Originally hailing from the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, Brian relocated to Indianapolis in 2015 and immediately joined Pride of Indy Bands where he reconnected with his passion for band and all things saxophone. Brian has served as the saxophone section leader for POI Concert Band since 2017, frequently plays with the POI Jazz Band, and has served on the Board of Directors. He co-founded the Geeks & Grooves Sax Quartet in 2019 which has since grown into a full saxophone choir representing all of the saxophone voices; from the mighty Bass to the diminutive Sopranino.
