Creed Bratton(USA)

Creed Bratton is a funny guy. He was initially cast just as a non-speaking role in The Office. That character evolved into a fan favorite as the series became one of the most streamed television shows of all time, making him an unlikely global star.

But many might not realize his story first began with music, and with the release of his 10th studio album Tao Pop, Creed cements his place in music history as he blissfully explores his many interpretations of pop music with what feels like a culmination of his many eclectic experiences.

Raised in a small mining town between Fresno and Yosemite, Creed saw his mother and grandparents all playing music from a very young age. Later, he’d impress with his acting skills in school plays before eventually dropping out of his drama major in college to travel across the world in search of himself. Through busking across Africa, Europe, the Mediterranean and the Middle East, and later becoming a member of the folk-pop group the Grass Roots, Creed experienced more in his early musical lifetime than most could say they’d ever aspire to, but he always felt there was more. Bratton’s solo career technically began the moment he left the Grass Roots in 1969 but he kicked it off with his debut album in 2003, Chasin’ The Ball. Eight more full-lengths followed, each one unraveling more layers of Bratton’s extensive musical universe.

Today, in his everyday life, Bratton embraces a sense of acceptance for whatever is meant to happen next. Don’t miss him this October when he comes to Australia!
