Brian is so Kenmore that he was born in Kenmore Mercy Hospital, and is jokingly referred to as, "Captain Kenmore," and, "The Mayor" by his friends. He is proud to call this little village his home. Brian had been out of the Buffalo music scene for many years in order to be a stay-at-home dad with his two beloved kiddos. In 2022, he was asked to be a founding member of Dellwood and the Nightshades as their bassist. Just two months after the band's first rehearsal, they had their live debut at Kenmore Porchfest II in his driveway, so each year it doubles as their band birthday party. (Free cake, everyone!) It was through this role of performer that he met Eric Nagel, the founder of Kenmore Porchfest. Kenmore Porchfest ties together three of Brian's main loves in life: family, community, and making music! ✌️❤️🎶
