BIO:
The Chicago-born DBreeon is playing the piano and saxophone since he was six years old , taught by his mother Parrea Wilson, a concert pianist. He studied under renowned Jazz-bassist Richard Davis at the University at Wisconsin, Madison where he extensively played the local club scene and became well known as an energetic Pop singer and New-School saxophonist. He played with Stanley Jordan at a concert in conjunction with Stanley Jordan's promotional tour. At the same time, he composed and performed smash Pop-R&B jams with his band, the Dans.
DBreeon's work has been celebrated since he was part of the album project "MadScene" with his band called the Dans. . The "MadScene" album featured the song "DO YOU", written by DBreeon who also sang lead vocals, which received excellent reviews. As a result, DBreeon was invited to Paisley Park (The Artist Formerly Known as Prince's) recording studios to lay down the tracks that now appear on the DO IT album as "Call Her".
Soon after graduation, he moved to Los Angeles to work exclusively in the music field. Here he performed in clubs like the Roxy and Gaylord in Beverly Hills, the Sidewalk Cafe in St. Monica, Downtime -NYC, Blue Note- Dresden Germany. He worked as an audio engineer in the Black Hole Studio as well as an independent producer with a variety of artists and labels. Chi Sound Records, DTA Records, Altar Records, Masonic, Quick Silver and Big Sound Records are some of them. DBreeon definitely has the big city edge on his music. His official debut album "DO IT" was released in 2000 and distributed in the US by Quicksilver/Increase and has been released in Europe by Masonic Music/ Yaskin. The artist writes, records and masters all his tracks at his own studio at Big Sound Records.
The multi-faceted "D" explored other aspects of the entertainment field as well. He appeared as a featured conga player on "The Mary Thomas Story" Disney feature as well as an understudy for Morris Day in the play "Lawd ha Mercy". DBreeon has also finished performing in and producing "America Now International", a DVD show that is included with either the "Fantasy" or "Mysterious Lover" DVD Albums that features cameo's from Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Herbie Hancock, Jamie Fox, Ben Verene and many others.
Recently, DBREEON alias Bryant Michael Davis was inducted into the National Register's Who's Who in America 2005-2006 Directory for outstanding artistic creations.
