Brandon received his degrees in jazz performance from the University of Central Florida and the University of South Florida. He performs on double, electric, and keyboard basses.

Brandon began playing music at the age of ten in school. His development began on the clarinet and alto saxophone. Playing electric bass up until the early morning because of restless nights gave him ample time to explore the instrument. Double bass entered the picture during his college years where he studied and took lessons with masters such a John Lamb, John Clayton, Richard Drexler, LaRue Nicholson, Chris Rottmayer, Mark Neuenschwander, Eric Bergeron, Per Danielsson, and Mike Hill.

He uses effects in his solo work. He plays as well as writes and composes for the band ANSWERS with Chris Belt, Beatriz Ramirez, Caitlin Pequignot, and Thad Anderson. He also has produced and mixed a number of live recordings.

Brandon proudly uses GHS strings.
