GLENN BRACE AND EMBRACED MUSIC

About Me

An experienced professional musician and entertainer, Glenn’s repertoire seems endless … much to the delight of his growing audiences.“The purpose of my music has always been to communicate the joy I feel about my life and the love that I feel for my family and friends. The guitar helps me touch people in a very special way and I’m thankful for that.”It’s very easy to get to know Glenn, with his willingness to please his audience, and it never takes long before he captures the heart and mind of others through his extraordinary guitar mastery. Glenn began playing guitar at the age of nine and moved from acoustic to electric by age thirteen - when he began playing in bands at school and out of school – and then back again to his real love … acoustic guitar.By the time he left school Glenn was composing his own songs and still plays them today – some featuring on his current CDs.He’s about to enter the studio again to record and produce his third and fourth CD's, following on from the success of You & I and Embraced – both still in demand and available for sale.An accomplished song writer, Glen has 100 original songs registered …. and they’re still pouring out of him. One of his treasured moments came when hearing the song he wrote for his young son’s school, performed live for the first time – they’d been 102 years without a song, and playing in Art Garfunkles band on the Gold Coast In Australia.Glenn’s performed with some of the worlds best known entertainers including George Benson, Art Garfunkel, Dionne Warwick, Anne Murray, Glenn Shorrock, Brian Cadd and many others. It’s likely you’ve heard his music played on the ABC and local radio stations as they receive more requests for his songs.Glenn currently retains a residency at Twin Towns Clubs And Resorts and a number of the Gold Coasts leading clubs and also features in a show he calls FantastiCAT – a tribute to the music of Cat Stevens. Glenn now has his own web site dedicated to his CD and Novel Lawrence Of Arkansas. There is also a booking form attached the web site if you wish to book Glenn for a venue.
