Jimi Brass at Speakeasy
Musician, lyricist, and producer Jimi Brass is constantly searching for awe-inspiring sounds. From creating sonic landscapes to building his own equipment, Jimi loves to twist the possibilities of sound. The music of Jimi Brass masterfully blends R&B, rock, funk, psych, and jazz. Ever the perfectionist, Jimi records every instrument/vocal track found within each song. Jimi Brass has always been around music. Born in 1998, his mother was a teacher and led songs in church with his aunts and grandmother. At the age of 5, his church bought a drum set and subsequently needed musicians. Jimi taught himself everything he needed to know about the drums by listening to his mom’s CD collection while playing on pillows with coat hangers. At the age of 5, Jimi received his first guitar and dedicated his life to the instrument. Determined to make a name for himself, Jimi moved to Fort Worth Texas in the winter of 2021, where he records and performs to this day.
