Singer/Songwriter Brenn Hill learned to wield a pen and guitar pick long before he learned to wield a razor. His career began at sixteen by influence from iconic Cowboy Music legends Ian Tyson, Chris LeDoux, Michael Martin Murphey, Red Steagall, and Don Edwards. Hill found his early audiences at Cowboy Poetry Gatherings, county fairs, music festivals, and honky-tonks across the Rocky Mountain West and Texas. His energetic and engaging performances are representative of a one man band.
With guitar in hand, harp harness around his neck, and kick drum under his ever-stomping boot, Hill’s delivery is all his own. He acknowledges songwriting as the driving force of his music endeavors and is influenced as a creator by the likes of Tom Russell, Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver, and of course the legendary Ian Tyson.
​
With seventeen studio recordings under his belt, Hill has evolved to be a central part of today’s cowboy and western music firmament.Brenn Hill is a dedicated father, avid Big Game hunter, and lover of all things wild and western. When not in the recording studio or on the road to a gig, you can bet he’s on the mountain chasing western big game, or horseback chasing cattle alongside family and friends.
