With more than seven million records sold, Jim Brickman’s romantic piano sound has made him the best-selling solo piano artist of our time. Brickman's best-known compositions include the chart-toppers “Valentine,” “The Gift,” “Love of My Life,” “Simple Things” and “Peace.” He’s established a reputation for his collaborations with many gifted musical artists: Lady Antebellum, Martina McBride, Kenny Loggins, Michael W. Smith, Carly Simon, Herb Alpert, Collin Raye, Michael Bolton, Donny Osmond and Olivia Newton-John.
His signature style has brought him six gold and platinum albums, 30 charted adult radio hits, and two Grammy nominations. He recently tied for most No. 1 albums on Billboard’s New Age chart, and he currently holds four of its top 10 spots. Brickman received top honors with two SESAC “Songwriter of the Year” awards, a Canadian Country Music Award and a Dove Award presented by the Gospel Music Association.
