Trans Siberian Orchestra's Phillip Brandon

Welcome to The Meredith Patterson Podcast, where we dive into the stories of remarkable human beings and artists. Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Phillip Brandon, a multifaceted singer, songwriter, and actor known for his dynamic solo career and touring the country as the beloved Narrator with The Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Welcome, Phillip!

Let's start at the beginning. Growing up in Inglewood, California, with a mother who toured with Ray Charles as a Raelette, music must have been a significant part of your home life.

Your journey has been incredibly diverse, from studying at Morehouse College to performing in the Broadway National Tour of "The Color Purple," and now, over a decade with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra as their Narrator. How have these varied experiences influenced your artistry?

You just released a 5-song EP titled "Deja Vu" on October 25th.

How do you stay positive with creating content, music, putting yourself out there on social media.

Phillip Brandon is more than an artist; he is a brand that embodies authenticity, passion, and connection. His music and performances are a testament of his dedication to his craft and unwavering commitment to his audience. Phillip's brand is built on a foundation of genuine artistry, emotional depth, and an unrelenting drive to connect with people through his work.
