About Me

Brandon Abbott's music is a soulful mix of folk, rock, and blues. Rooted in the Columbus, Ohio coffeehouse scene, the band's music addresses issues of life, love, and faith that are accessible to everyone. A Brandon Abbott concert is an energetic, thought-provoking, and interactive experience that is not to be missed.

The Brandon Abbott Trio, which played several shows in the summer of 2007 combined pop, rock, blues, and folk influences into a unique musical blend. Although the band no longer plays together you can listen to a few of there tracks on the myspace site.

The songs, all writer by Brandon Abbott, are about stumbling through life. They are as spiritual as you make them, but they are also romantic, dramatic, uplifting, mournful, sad and happy. But don't let us tell you what the music is about. You can decide that for yourself.
