Brandon Coleman

Brandon Coleman (March 26, 2000 - ) is an American teen recording artist, songwriter, producer, and dancer in the styles of Pop and more significantly R&B. Born in Walnut Creek & raised in Antioch, California; The third child of the Coleman family, he first exhibited musical talent consistently playing on a grand piano his father brought home one evening.

After the move to North Carolina, Brandon was placed in a Magnet School of the Arts about an hour from which he'd lived then. Doing him no good, and with a bad first impression of North Carolina, Brandon was eventually switched from the magnet school to a year round middle school closer by.
