At twenty, Brendan Velasquez knows what he wants out of life and he has set out to reach his goal: a career in the music business. With his unstoppable ambition, driven determination, and timeless talent there is not much that can stop this young man from reaching that goal and moving people through music. Songs on Brendan’s debut album range from pop/dance/electronic, R&B with a techno flare, and even includes a throwback to Motown with one of his most personal tracks (and bonus), Old School. "Livin' Out Loud", released July 1st, 2008, is a project Brendan is very proud of. After taking two years to complete, the album is Brendan from front to back. “Livin’ Out Loud" describes Brendan’s life as a teenager, through heartbreaks, self-realization, growing up, and just having a good time. Whether young or old, there is something for everyone on the album who loves great music. Brendan’s involvement as a writer on this first project and the creative control he was given help make this album really special and authentic. Brendan is currently on his second leg of the “LIVIN’ OUT LOUD TOUR,” at various clubs and PRIDE events throughout the country. The stage show is exciting and shows that even in the dance/pop genre, real artistry can exist and shine through. With looks that equal Zac Efron and Ashton Kutcher, and a voice reminiscent of Justin Timberlake and George Michael, Brendan Velasquez is an artist that you will be seeing a lot of in 2009 and many years to come.
