“The guy is a musical Swiss Army Knife.” - Stefan Scheuermann, Song Divers

That’s about the easiest way to say it about Brian Sutherland. Part Americana singer songwriter with a clever left hand on the guitar, part classical cellist, side-man musician, storyteller, father and husband who happens to love billiards, bourbon and a brand new song.

Raised on the Southwest Florida beaches and brought up in bars packed with tourists and passerby’s, Sutherland honed his craft for storytelling. He knew if he could keep a crowd of parrotheads and pirates, he could do it anywhere. As a sideman he played with a slew of marquee acts like The Beach Boys, Michael Ray, Clemons Road and Blessing Offor. After moving to Nashville in 2017, he’s penned hundreds of songs and showcased on every major stage the city has to offer. His most recent album, “Sounds Like Love” was released in early 2020 and was celebrated with a performance at the famed Bluebird Cafe. Jeff Cohen: (IG @jeffcohenmusic)
