He was glowing as he spoke about the team that would help him during the holiday concert season, “I’ve been performing with Anne Cochran and Tracy Silverman for many, many years. Anne and I met in high school. I look forward to performing with her, not only because we are close friends, but because she has a beautiful voice and a great personality. Tracy is a brilliant musician who adds a dimension to my concert that you don’t normally expect to hear. Ben Utecht is new to the tour but maybe a familiar name to NFL football fans. He was a member of the Super Bowl Championship Indianapolis Colts. He has a powerful voice that brings new meaning to familiar songs and old favorites. Ben has a large presence on stage, and he wears his Super Bowl ring!”
Jim does not hesitate when it comes to giving back to the new generation of young musicians. He was asked by New Age Music World to give some advice to the new class and provide some tips on how they should advance through their careers, “Listen to many different artists that you enjoy and admire. Hear what it is in their music and lyrics that speak to you. Then when you sit down to write, adopt what you like from other elements and make it your own.”
Even though it is good practice to mimic your mentors at the early stages, the most important thing to Jim is developing your own unique sound, “So many pianists tell me “Everyone says I sound like Jim Brickman. How do I start my career?” Well, there’s already a Jim Brickman, so I tell them the best way is to create a new, unique sound. Find places to be heard. And don’t be afraid of rejection. Find places to play and show off your talent. Start small and get your style and personality known so that you can grow your career.”
Jim Brickman has not revealed any public information about his personal and private relationships.
