BIOGRAPHY
Gene Randall Brashier, Singer/Songwriter, born and raised in the Upstate Of SC, has just finished recording his first acoustic demo. Music started at a young age for Randall, who was inspired by his Father. Influences as a child were Johnny Cash, Porter Wagner, Waylon Jennings,& Lynrd Skynrd.

At 8 years old, Randalls Father gave him his first guitar and Randall immediately started learning chords and how to play. As Randall became older and got into high school he began playing in a band for the love of music and extra money. After the band went there seperate ways, Randall continued to play through the years with other bands and also with his Family and Friends.

About 15 years ago, Randall started writing lyrics in his free time. He now has a total of about 30 songs he's written over this 15 year period. Randall has always held on to his songs but never tried to make anything of them until now. He recently performed a Legends show at the Greer Opry House as Johnny Cash. During his practices for this show he let a few people in on some of the lyrics he'd written and also performed them for some of his friends and family.

After people heard his Singing/Songwriting, they started influencing him to take it further. He recently recorded his first acoustic demo at local crysal rains studio. Randall is still enjoying writing songs and playing at local pubs around the upstate of SC.
