Guitar, Stand-up Bass, Vocals
Born in 1978 in Queens, NY, Brian found his love for guitar at the age of 10. Growing up in Red Bank, NJ, Brian became intrigued with the music of guitar heroes like Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, and Jimi Hendrix. Exploring the roots of these artists as well as many others, Brian discovered a never ending journey both into the history and progression of music. Blues artists such as B.B. King, Robert Johnson, and Buddy Guy made their way into his album collection as well as folk heroes like Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and Simon and Garfunkel. The limitless boundaries of music suggested by artists like Jerry Garcia and Trey Anastasio was enough for Bolen to accept music as his form of artistic expression to be shared with everyone. Listen close and hear his influences shine through his unique, signature licks.
Currently residing in Deerfield Beach, FL, Brian has been playing professionally for the past ten years.
