10. Brian Brasher: Pitch Hammer CEO (Hollywood Music Production Company); Musician, Songwriter and Founding Member of the Band, "Creed" -- On the Production Music Industry, Bumping Into Geniuses, and Getting Music Placed in Film and TV

Brenton Hund Podcast

Let’s pull the curtain back and take a look at what happens behind the scenes in the production music business. Cue the alien action sequence, insert epic music, and watch the magic happen.
In this episode we’re talking with Brian Brasher, CEO of of Pitch Hammer Music, a high-end film and television music company. Pitch Hammer specializes in music for motion picture advertising, and has provided music for iconic film and TV franchises such as Star Wars, Black Panther, Alien, Game of Thrones, Westworld, and many others.
Brian is also a musician and songwriter, collaborating on hit songs, and getting his music placed in some of your guilty pleasure TV shows. For example, if cooking shows are your jam, you may already have heard some of Brian’s handiwork. We’ll talk about the unlikely brilliance in the combination of Brian’s hard rock music in the background on HGTV while someone cuts carrots.
Of course, prior to all of this, Brian helped form the multi, multi-platinum selling band Creed in the 1990s at Florida State University. He was part of the meteoric rise of the band, though he left Creed after college for a job in the record business.
There’s a lot to talk about. So let’s roll with Brian Brasher.
