For Immediate Release

Bryan Grant’s Debut Collection of Jazz Instrumentals
Think Of Me, Now Available

Chicago area composer, Bryan Grant, is pleased to announce the release of his debut CD “Think Of Me.” Grant is a self-taught pianist whose dreamy, upbeat brand of new style jazz is sure to please fans of instrumental pop composers like Jim Brickman and John Tesh. Grant composed, arranged and performed all the music on this 12-track release, which was recorded at Liquide Sounds Studio in Chicago. “Think Of Me” is available through CDBaby.com, OutboundMusic.com, The CD Store.net, Acupofmusic.com, JamIndiana.com, and multiple digital download MP3 internet music sites. It is also available as ring tone downloads across Asia.

Lush, swirling production and playful hypnotic melodies are the earmark of Grant’s impressive collection “Think Of Me.” The title track is a slow, thoughtful piano study accented by a chorus of soothing synths that captivate like waves crashing on the shore. The mid-tempo pick-me-up “Worth Taking,” starts with a catchy, upbeat piano and takes it soaring with airy cymbals and blasts of faint percussion sounding like the billowy stream of inspiration. Fans of John Tesh brand instrumental heroism will instantly recognize a kindred spirit in “Motion,” with it’s galloping beat and sea of atmospheric percussion. In all, the 12 fresh tracks showcase Grant’s considerable talent as a composer, but what makes this collection even more unique is the way that his optimistic, soothing nature shines through.

“Think Of Me,” is Bryan Grant’s first recording, but the talented composer’s thirst to play music goes back to his childhood, when he taught himself to play the piano by studying his niece’s piano lesson, secondhand, at his aunt’s house. Playing has been his passion ever since and has always been a priority even as he traveled the world in the military and returned home to pursue a career in medicine. While in medical school, his brother recruited him to join his band and playing with live musicians would prove to be a turning point for him as a musician. “I learned chording and arranging patterns from that experience, and soon began coming up with my own songs and arrangements.”

His collection of original songs grew from there, and now, after years of wanting to make a CD, he decided that there was no better time than the present. Whether his future includes a record deal, soundtrack scoring, having his music orchestrated and performed, or simply releasing more self-released CD’s for appreciative listeners, Grant will continue to create music from his heart, with the hopes of sharing it with others. “I would like to offer inspiring music that doesn’t really tell what to think - it let’s you go ahead and reflect on your own. I’d like to provide that conduit to help you relax, to touch your soul.”

    I have to say this CD was a great find! I listen to it on my car stereo everyday going back and forth to work, completely relaxes me throuhgout the drive. Very soothing jazzy styled music. Love it!

  • Very Good First Effort Bryan
    author: Hans Onurglanz

    I am a foreign exchange student who has spent some time now in the USA. I like listening to independant artists as their music tends to be the most pure in nature. Bryan has captured quite a bit of this in his music. I do question the one reviewer however who wrote that this CD should be rated an 11 out of 10. How is this possible when the rating system only allows for a 5 at most. Is not mathemathics a required course for people in this country who go through the school systems? A very good CD overall, with some room for improvements in style and composition, this is why I would rate it a 4.

  • SMOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    author: Hava Stigmata

    Very smooth, the mellow tones seemed to remind me of isolated penguins somehow, the blending mix of horns and percussion were done to perfection. Although not a native of this country, Bryan's music made me almost feel at home.

  • It entices the heart to want more!

    This music overwhelms my soul with provocative emotions of joy, sadness, and the beauty of strength to survive. My Joe.
