Brady L Blade Jr. (born 1965 in Shreveport, Louisiana) is an American rock, pop and country drummer, record producer and composer, who currently resides in Shreveport. He is the son of Dorothy and Pastor Brady Blade Sr. (Pastor of the Zion Baptist Church in Shreveport, Louisiana). His brother is jazz drummer Brian Blade.〔Varga, George (1996) "EMMYLOU LEAVES COUNTRY BEHIND | ECLECTIC FOLK INFLUENCES HELP SHAPE HER LATEST INCARNATION", ''San Diego Union-Tribune'', April 11, 1996〕 Having learned to play drums in both high school and as part of his father's church, Brady initially sought out a career in business, focusing on the music industry. This led to A&R roles at several major record labels, before ultimately becoming manager to the Brand New Heavies. He has played as part of Emmylou Harris's band, Spyboy, Steve Earle and the Dukes, Dave Matthews & Friends,〔Orshoski, Wes (2003) "Dave Matthews Goes Solo", ''Billboard'', 11 October 2003, p. 3, 96〕 and with Buddy & Julie Miller.〔Grant Alden, Peter Blackstock (2009) ''No Depression #77: Surveying the Past, Present, and Future of American Music'', University of Texas Press, ISBN 978-0-292-71929-3, p. 137〕 ==Return to drumming== Early 1995 saw Emmylou Harris persuade Brady to return to his kit as part of her touring band ''Spyboy'', along with Daniel Lanois and Darryl Johnson. The following year they were joined by Buddy Miller and toured throughout the mid-nineties, culminating in a live album ''Spyboy'', released in 1998. Touring the world with Emmylou Harris led Brady to encounter and be seen by some of the key figures in the American music scene which resulted in Brady becoming one of the most in-demand session drummers around. Brady took part in extensive tours and sessions with the Steve Earle during his El Corazón period; Jewel throughout her 1998 Spirit world tour; and the Indigo Girls on their 1999 album ''Come on Now Social'', 2002's ''Become You'', 2004's ''All That We Let In'', and 2011's ''Beauty Queen Sister''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brady Blade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
