   About Brian Oaks
I live in Nashville, TN and have an amazing wife of 15 years with two great kids; Tyler and Abigail. I get to play guitar for some great people. I am gear head but there is not much better than an old guitar into some great old amp.

Originally from Seattle where good coffee abounds and you can by a nice bottle of wine at the local grocery...I moved here to play guitar, write and produce.

I have played with some great people here in town to name a few:

SHeDAISY

James Otto

Cowboy Troy

Mandisa

Beth Cayhall

Megan Munroe

Laurie Killian-Starr

Corey Crowder

Jenny Brooks

Jason Harvey

Daniel Kirkley

Bryan Edwards

Jessica Rae

Kim Walling and many others

"Hallelujah Holds Me Together" is a demo I wrote with Kim Walling and Shawn Tubbs. This is a NEW VERSION with the lovely Kim Keyes (Amy Grant, Peter Cetera, Billy Joel) singing.

"Ashes & Alcohol" is a demo I wrote with Kim Keyes. I love this song and Kim is amazing.

"Everything You Do" is a demo (less vocal) I did. I played electric guitars.

"Moonshine" is another song I wrote with Megan Munroe. I played guitars and that is Megan singing.

Also check out my demo clips for Duesenberg Guitars (coolest on the planet). http://www.duesenbergusa.com/index2.html. Go to hollow bodies then to the Outlaw TV.

Check out Duesenberg Guitars, G7th capos, and Tonefreak Effects for good musical vibe.

Peace.

Doing a Myspace revamp, so new tunes should be up soon.
