is a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, vocalist, and teacher.  His musical stylings are reminiscent of the Seattle Sound of the 90′s – in fact, Braden’s formative years were spent growing up in the area, and the music scene heavily influenced his early studies.  After high-school, he began to appreciate and study jazz, and found his way to NYC to eventually receive his BFA at New School University’s Jazz and Contemporary Music Program.  Now living in Brooklyn, NY, Braden is finding new ways to weave the raw energy and songwriting of his Seattle-grunge roots with the improvisational spirit of jazz.
