Brad Allen is a Kansas City-based singer-songwriter and drummer known for writing smart, catchy, and emotionally resonant songs. Drawing on influences like Fountains of Wayne, Paul Simon, and Green Day, Brad blends power pop energy with thoughtful lyricism and a DIY indie spirit.
Brad’s music is crafted in his home studio, where he writes, performs, and records everything himself. The result is a body of work that’s perfect for fans of clever, melodic pop-rock — and ripe for music supervisors looking for fresh, sync-ready tracks.
Before carving out his path as a solo artist, Brad performed for several years in the U.S. Army Band — an experience that shaped his discipline and deepened his musicianship. Today, in addition to releasing original music, Brad plays jazz gigs across the Kansas City area with his trio and continues to explore his love of rhythm and improvisation.
Whether leading a tight jazz trio or delivering heartfelt solo performances, Brad’s music connects across genres — always with honesty, groove, and purpose.
