Stennett Music
Brandon Stennett started his career in music at a small cafe,
Lone Star Bar and Grill about a year and a half ago, which is
a family Diner located on the Claude Highway just South of town.
"No matter how big things get for me, I will always come
back and play at the The Lone Star" Brandon says. Speaking
of how big things have gotten already, so far Brandon has made
milestones as an artist. In August of last year, he played a 2
hour show for the Oprah Winfrey Show that was filmed in Dalhart
for the Animal Rescue Center there. He opened for the band Sick
:puppies, which is an Australian band that came to the U.S. and
has chart topping songs such as "All the Same".
Born
and Raised in Amarillo, he graduated from Randall High School.
As a matter of fact, he actually performed at his 10 year high
school reunion at the Goldenlight Cantina.
Brandon
has 3 children, Kloi is 13, Jax is 11and Madox is 7. "They
love to come hang out at the studio or come to the shows that
they can attend and steal money from my tip jars" Stennett
boasts. "My wife also stands behind me 100% and believes
in me above all others. I wouldn't be this far into my dream if
I didn't have her right beside me."
Brandon is also a firefighter for the Amarillo Fire Department
and has been with the AFD for 12 years. "I love working as
a Firefighter, but if my music career takes off and profits enough
for me to provide for my family, I will have to follow my heart
and go for the music career." says Stennett. A love and a
passion for music keeps the dream alive. And as you can see, daily
demands keep him juggling between family, work, recording, traveling
and playing live shows.

him snowball into the musician he is today. He also recently signed
