B.Reith (pronounced RYE-TH) (born Brian Reith) grew up in Milwaukee and began singing on commercials at the age of five. His father owned a recording studio, in which Brian fell in love with the art of creating music. Singing and performing at churches and in school was the playground where he developed a passion for entertaining others by serving them with his gifts.
After moving to Nashville he was discovered by Gotee founder Toby Mac, who after hearing the demo Brian produced in his bedroom for the first time pulled his car over to the side of the road. "It's amazing when God truly gives someone a gift," says Toby. "Brian is just naturally gifted from God vocally and his lyrics, when they hit tape, they sort of just ease into your heart."
With influences ranging from Stevie Wonder to Lauryn Hill, B.Reith comes from a unique place that combines classic soul and pop with modern hip hop. “God gave me an ear to pick up things,” says Brian. “My style is just an accumulation of what I’ve heard throughout my life, channeled through the unique talents that God has given me.”
Above artistry, above accolades, Brian Reith knows where his gifts come from. It is obvious that heaven has blessed him with the tools and the talent to effect the hearts and souls of all who would hear him. He yearns share the redemptive story of hope in a Creator, a Savior and a life that extends beyond this shattered world. "My number one passion is to connect with people, to entertain them, to stir up emotion in them, and to challenge them by sharing life from a different perspective. There is something we’re all yearning for. I’m just trying to help direct our attention to it, and music is the most powerful way I know how.”
