Bryn Christopher is bound for superstardom
I first heard of his song while watching the Season Finale of Grey’s Anatomy (video is at the end of this post). I thought the song had that Amy Winehouse vibe to it, and was rather surprised, it was a man singing!
Who is he? He’s none other than rising music star, Bryn Christopher, whose song The Quest will be released through Polydor Records on June 9th.
Incidentally, he did tour with Amy Winehouse early in his career, when he was still trying to make a name for himself.
A Birmingham (UK) native, the 22 year old soul singer has also been compared to Stevie Wonder and the legendary Otis Redding, whose singing style and delivery always seem to be soulful and heartfelt…like any minute, a vein would pop open because of all the emotion thrown into the song.
The Quest showcases Bryn’s effective voice with the Hammond organ playing in the background. The song, they say, is all about his brother’s experience as a soldier. Interestingly, Bryn had written the lyrics only on his mobile phone.
Bryn’s debut album called My World is scheduled to be released in August.
He is currently testing the waters in the United States, with the powerful William Moris Talent Agency taking care of him. Mary J Blige has reportedly asked to go on tour with him.

Below is the video of The Quest and the one following that is how they used the song on Grey’s Anatomy:
