歌手简介
概况Jay Brannan于1982年出生在德克萨斯州一个中产阶级家庭，是一个石油工程师和教师的儿子。他说他的家人是“保守的浸礼宗教徒”。Brannan在俄亥俄州辛辛那提读过一个学期的大学，随后他和一名他在网上认识的男子一起远行到了加利福尼亚州，他们首先在棕榈泉短暂居留，后来他去到了洛杉矶，试图成为一名演员。  2002年他和男友结束了恋爱关系，然后接到了一家公司的试镜通知，于是他搬到了纽约市，并提交了自己的试镜带。
Brannan于2003年在电影《性爱巴士》里出演了一个角色，他在这部电影里大胆的性爱场景令人印象尤深。与此同时，他还找了一份校对的工作来养活自己。他的一首歌《soda shop》被电影作为配乐，这是他的第一个专业录制曲目。后来，Brannan开始在You Tube上上传自己的音乐视频，这使得他在没有任何企业赞助的情况下吸引了一大批国际粉丝群。
2007年他在电影《Holding Trevor》中扮演主角的一个性伙伴，还发行了一张限量版的单曲。
2008年7月，Brannan自己发行了名为《Goddamned》的专辑。同一年，他辞退了他的校对工作，完全靠专辑和演唱会收入来养活自己。
他的第二张专辑《In Living Cover》在2009年发行，并于2009年7月25日登上TOP HEATSEEKERS排行榜的第十名。
第三张专辑《ROB ME BLIND》预计在2012年3月27日开始发售。目前该专辑在iTUNES上的PRE ORDER CHART上稳定在21位左右。

  新单Beautifully在itunes上大获好评Jay Brannan自我介绍jay brannan was born under a rock in the coldest part of the himalayas where he was raised by trappist monks who taught him to maintain his body temperature without the necessity of food and clothing through intense meditation and really hard drinking. shortly after his first birthday, he suffered a graphic and painful death to a hungry mountain lion who wasn't so good at meditation and just needed a hearty snack. it wasn't long however before jay's indomitable spirit reappeared in southeast texas to a family who actually wanted a girl. in many ways,they got what they wanted, yet the compromise seemed to be much more controversial than the original disappointment. after years and years of southern baptist i  Brannanmmersion in texas, canada, and oklahoma, jay found himself once again outside houston, TX, continuing in the public school system (quite similar to cattle herding, state prisons, or perhaps eventhe new york city healthcare system) and a conservative, repressive society infiltrated by a mixture of religion, rebellion, used car lots,and lots of barbecue (the latter being the most repulsive?). 
by 1999, jay really threw a dildo in a small town's gears when he decided that he hated high school so much that he would graduate in three years. he then moved on to scarier territories by attending the university of cincinnati's acting program where he was kicked out after six months because they no longer needed his slave labor services to build sets for the musical theatre and opera students. it was quite the blessing in disguise, however. rather than transferring to another school and wasting more time and money going to college for a degree only slightly more useful than aromatherapy, he moved to palm springs,CA, to live with a man he met on the internet. 
obviously that didn't last long. 
in a matter of months, jay found himself living in los angeles, CA, in atiny studio apartment off the sunset strip. what a star, huh? well, eventually the bathroom of that studio fell through into the garage below. so jay moved in with the guy he had been dating for a whole month. i mean, the guy's roommate had moved out...the timing was perfect, right? 
after that, jay moved into another little apartment in hollywood where he remained for about a year until moving to new york city where he has currently resided for six years. 
see what happens when you make me talk about my past? if you think this bio is long and boring, all the good stuff happened in between the lines. oh shit, was i supposed to say something about music in here??
相较于拥有众多疯狂歌词的成名歌手来说,Brannan是默默无闻的,尽管他已经拥有了一批死忠的支持者,但目前尚未有人为他筹资出专辑,也没有任何的唱片公司于他接洽.但他依然很努力得创作歌曲,这点从他个人网站上不断更新的视频创作歌曲就可以看出.
他相信,网络是万能的,只要他坚持继续创作,喜欢他的人也会一如既往的喜欢他.总有一天,两条平行线会交织在一起.。
