BIOGRAPHY

Jim BrickmanJim Brickman has revolutionized the sound of solo piano with his pop-style instrumentals and star-studded vocal collaborations.
 
With over 7 million records sold, Brickman’s romantic piano sound has made him the best selling solo piano artist of our time. His signature songwriting style, original music, and unique performances have also brought him six Gold and Platinum selling albums, 30 charted adult radio hits, Grammy nominations in 2003 & 2009, two SESAC “Songwriter of the Year” awards, a Canadian Country Music Award and a Gospel Music Association Dove Award.



His best-known compositions include the chart-toppers “Valentine,” “The Gift,” “Love of My Life,” “Simple Things” and “Peace.” January 2012 saw Jim hold the top three spots on the Top 10 of Billboard’s New Age chart for his albums Love, Romanza and All is Calm.


Brickman has been a strong supporter of PBS, starring in four TV concert specials: Beautiful World (2009), Jim Brickman Live from Disney’s Magic Kingdom (2005), My Romance—An Evening with Jim Brickman (2000) and Love Songs and Lullabies (2002).
 


A native of Cleveland, Brickman began playing piano at the age of five and studied music at the prestigious Cleveland Institute of Music. He founded his own advertising music company in 1980, writing commercial jingles for such advertisers as McDonald’s, Pontiac and Kellogg’s.
 


Other artistic endeavors include a popular weekly radio show, Your Weekend with Jim Brickman; two best-selling books, Simple Things and Love Notes; debuts at Carnegie Hall and the White House; and international touring from Spain to Thailand. His Jim Brickman Cruise have become an annual hot-ticket event. He’s teamed up with American Greetings, lending original music to create some of their best-selling eCards with over 1.7 millions sent to date. Brickman lends a hand to many charitable foundations for children, including Autism Speaks and UNICEF. A scholarship was recently established in his name at the Cleveland Institute of Music.

Music is the soundtrack of life, love or even our everyday adventures, and Jim has given us 15 wonderful years. His songs have done everything from ease the pain to captivate people falling in love. It’s amazing to think that something as simple as a melody can have a lasting effect on emotions and lives.

It's your turn to express your feelings to Jim.  Let him know all the reasons why his music is a part of your life!

Thanks from our hearts. Dear Jim, We attended your winter 2001 concert in Edmonton, Alberta Canada featuring Amy Sky. It was a difficult time for our family as we had just lost a dear family member that summer. 9/11 just compounded the pain of it all. Your concert was not just a brilliant musical peformance, but it touched all of us in different ways from all of the lovers in the audience to those of us nursing broken hearts. You created an ambience that was unmistakably personal, proving that you do give your all to each and every one of your fans. Thanks again Jim, we hope you continue to create your signature brand of music for many years to come and hope you have plans for a Canadian tour in the near future. Submitted By: Kenny Lim

HOME My brother and sister- in-law just gave me your new cd HOME for Christmas. I was amazed at how healing and relaxing each track was and as a 1984 graduate of Ashland University , in OH, I am also a Robin Meade fan , another AU graduate. I went to school w/ many Clevelanders and grew up on Rock and Roll from the 70's having attended the ELO /Frampton tour at the old Cleveland stadium. Quite a historic event. Would love to see you perform at the Aronoff Center, next month, in Cinci. Keep up the great work. Submitted By: Nancy

The keys play in my heart I am 46 and still say I am going to learn how to play the piano. I have not done this because as a mother, the kids always come first. My youngest daughter will graduate this year and i will finally (hopefully) conquer this dream of mine. Some people don't understand how I can love a sound with no words...I told them...I feel it in my heart...I pretend on the steering wheel, I pretend at my desk, I pretend all the time. i fantasize about playing for my family some Christmas...(of course i will need a piano or keyboard first). But it is on my bucket list...and I hope before my time on earth runs out...I will give my gift of music to the ones I love. Your music plays with every beat of my heart. Thank you and my God bless you. Submitted By: Margaret Tobin

Thank You Dear Jim, Just wanted to let you know what a tremendous blessing you have been to me. I recently heard the songs "Never Alone" and "Til I See you Again" and was so moved in my heart. The words and music expecially were a great encourage to me. I am a Scleroderma patient and have been for the past 26 years. There are and have been times I felt so hopeless and withdrawn, but I believe music is strength for the soul and along with faith and the power of God , I wiil continue to fight this disease and I just wanted you to know that you have been and continue to be a part of my healing. There is no known cure for this disease, but there is ALWAYS hope. Thanks so much! Cathy :) Submitted By: Cathy Huffman

lovely to write by Hi Jim, I just wanted to let you know I love to write by your music. It's incredible and really helps me get in the minds of my characters and the mood of the story I'm working on. Amazing pieces that add so much flavor, depth and grace to writing. Thank you for being the soundtrack! ~ Meg Submitted By: Meg

You're an Inspiration! Jim, I'm currently a senior in high school. I've been listening to you since 4th grade when my teacher always used to play your CDs during class, believe it or not. I share a similar story with you in that I began playing piano at the age of 5. I wasn't the biggest fan of lessons, but after 9 years of taking them I had done very well. Your music taught me that improvisation was okay; like I've read about some of your experience with piano lessons, I had received a lot of negative feedback from teachers about improvisation at the piano. I secured a volunteer spot at my church when I was in 5th grade and really took off in terms of performing on the piano. In high school I was taught how to sing in choir, and since then I've directed a liturgical music ensemble for three years. I have been well received by my church's parishioners and my classmates and teachers at school. My latest success came with a release of a home-recorded album called My Christmas Dedication, which contain

Inspiration to Johnathon Jim - Our family are huge fans! My son, Johnathon - 17 yrs old, has been playing piano since he was 9 yrs old. He truly has a gift for music. He is inspired by your music. We decorate the outside of our house with TONS of Xmas lights. A couple yrs ago, Johnathon moved our piano outside so he could play your music as folks drove through our neighborhood to look at Xmas lights. We are coming to see you in Tempe, AZ on 12/19/10 for our family Christmas celebration. We can hardly wait! Thank you for your gift of music... It is a treat indeed to our family! All the best to you in 2011. The Bernat Family Rod, Kate, Johnathon & Jarod Submitted By: Kate Bernat

in times like these I've been having a hard time, after my divorce, living in a new place, far from my family, where I don't know a lot of people, having some other personal problems and battling, some times, deep depression... but your music, soothes my fears, my heart and makes me have hope and look and think about people who are in much worse conditions than me. It gives me warm thoughts and reminds me of a girl, who once was resilient and thought that nothing would never take her down. Your music, now, is always part of my days! Thank you so much!
