      About the Author

      Bryan C. Simmons was born in Vallejo, Ca on September 9. Many assume this talented and dynamic artist with an undying passion and good ear for music would have started playing the piano at a young age. This was far from the truth. Bryan grew up in a musical household and unconsciously developed his ear for music. Mother, Joyce, is a nationally known gospel recording artist, songwriter, publisher, and director of the Gospel Music Workshop of America. Father Barada is an active member in his church praise team. Those accolades meant nothing to the young Bryan C. Simmons. He danced to the beat of his own drum and wanted nothing to do with the music industry. During his childhood Bryan had an innate passion for taking things apart and putting them back together. When he wasn’t going to the famous Sac’s Hotdogs in Vallejo, Ca with his grandpa Joseph he was being bribed by sister Anna to do her school art projects.

      In 2001, Bryan developed a passion for wrestling and football from watching his uncle Alfred Simmons, professional football coach. Alfred would often bring Bryan along to practice and to games when he coached for UC Berkeley and the San Francisco 49ers. Alfred nurtured Bryans work ethic that still continues to serve him today. Like many young boys Bryan envisioned becoming a professional athlete until one day his dad sat him down for the talk, the talk that would encourage Bryan to pivot. Bryan’s dreams to become a professional athlete would crumble when his dad said, Son, you’re slow, shortly before he would beat him in a friendly race to prove it.

      Uncertain what his future would hold he was listening to his mom practice on the piano and was stuck trying to figure out a church hymnal. Frustrated and confused Bryan approaches the piano and to his mothers surprise plays the exact chord she was struggling to get. Little did the Simmons family know that would be the day that changed Bryan’s life.

      From that moment instead of finding Bryan on the field at football games, you could find him in the stands with the school marching band. In 2008, as a senior year in high school with confidence and gumption, he looked his dad in the eyes and demanded he buy him a Yamaha Upright Acoustic Piano because he was certain he would
