HOW A SPECIAL GIFT BECAME A DREAM

Britt was born in Bethesda, Md and grew up in nearby Silver Spring, a suburb of Wash., DC. Britt's parents split at an early age, and his childhood was not easy, "but it was fun." He took to performing at an early age and at the age of 5 had his first performance at a Christmas dinner at the Gospel mission his dad grew up in.
A dream was born.


Britt was a clown in his school days, was in all the plays, in bands, and choirs, and
even started writing music in middle school.Britt decided to study music and went to the University of Miami (Fla)on a scholarship. He didn't forget theatre though and studied that as well. By the time he finished in schooling, he became disillusioned
with all the politics and expectations of music and how they were affecting his love of music and creativity. He knew he had the talent, but it wasn't about the gift and joy anymore.


Britt came back home to MD, passing up several offers in Miami,"it just didn't feel
right anymore," and got a normal 9-5 job. Britt met a fellow musician, who introduced him to church and a whole new way of looking at life and music-the dream awakened. God really blessed Britt when he got laid off of his comfy job, and lost his girlfriend in the same week. Britt couldn't ignore his gift any longer, and when he saw his mentor and friend Jon Secada on the Tonight Show he said to himself "That could be me".
With another friend singing backup to Jon a new dedication was made-the dream became a goal.


Britt started writing/producing his own material. Spent every dime he had creating music. Got into a band started playing gigs, even went to karaokes to learn new material, and everyone said "Why aren't you famous?" Some of his material got immediate airplay but only on local music programs.


They loved his stuff but he wasn't a major label. So Britt created his own label Phoenixx and manufactured his own CD's and his making his dreams a reality.
With support from family, friends and you his talent will shine. Become a Believer.
It's not over till this soulful man sings.!!!
