Born on January 12, 1973
Brian Culbertson is a musician and instrumentalist from Decatur,
Illinois. He is the son of jazz band director and trumpeter Jim
Culbertson. Brian plays the keyboard and trombone. Brian’s music is
heavily influenced by funk. He has been putting more vocals in his
music. Some of the vocalist he has used is Trey Lorenz, Marc Nelson,
Kenny Lattimore and Avant. Brian has worked as a composer and
arranger for some well-known jazz artist like Dave Koz, Peter White,
Richard Elliot, Jeff Lorber, Michael Lington and legendary A&M
Record’s composer and producer Herb Alpert. The cast of musicians
he has on this album are Alex Al, John "Jubu" Smith, Eric
Marienthal, Michael Stever, Ray Parker, Jr., Rex Rideout, and Rob
"Fonksta" Bacon. The songs I really enjoy on this album are
“Later Tonight”, “No Limits”, and “Still Here”, “You’re
My Music”, “Dream”, “Lights Off and The Journey. Brian has
blended adult-oriented R&B with contemporary jazz on the “Dreams”
album. On vocals he has Staley Williams (Mint Condition), Vivian
Green, and Noel Gourd in. This album is worth buying, it is smooth
jazz and R&B at its best.
