Brinley Addington
Born and raised in Kingsport, Tennessee, Brinley Addington's passion for Country music began well before the small town singer can even remember. At age three, Brinley began climbing on top of his parent's coffee table pretending he was performing on the Grand Ole Opry. Brinley was influenced early on by the hymns he heard on Sunday morning and the traditional country voices of Randy Travis, Vince Gill, and Alan Jackson. As time went by, Brinley gained inspiration from modern country artists like Garth Brooks and Tim McGraw as well as his parents' love of bluegrass music. In the fourth grade, Brinley's music teacher encouraged a reluctant little boy to enter the school talent show where he performed in front of a crowd for the very first time. At age 12, Brinley began singing at Church where he realized, what he feels to be, God's plan for his life: making music. Brinley's greatest musical influence came in 2005 in the form of Josh Turner's "Your Man" album. Turner's blend of soulful, traditional country music, bluegrass, and faith-based subject matter became the blueprint for what Brinley wanted to accomplish with his music. Since 2007, Brinley has had the honor of opening shows for several major artists such as Marty Stuart, Jack Ingram, The Band Perry, Gavin DeGraw, James Otto, John Michael Montgomery, Relient K, and the Casey Donahew Band, and has performed in such venues as Nashville's historic Bluebird Cafe, Tootsie's Orchid Lounge and Exit/In, New York City's Tavern on the Green, and has performed and served as headliner at multiple fairs, festivals, and college events in the southeast. Brinley's first full length album Homegrown debuted in May of 2011 and is garnering outstanding reviews from peers and music industry professionals alike. The music video for the album's first single, "Hang on a Farm" was released in August of 2011. Addington says, "I just want to write and record good, relatable, country music that honors tradition and also speaks to my generation."
