About me

Hello! I'm Brian Lothridge, a singer/songwriter from Olean, NY, with more than 30 years of experience. I've played bars and restaurants, conventions, private parties, funerals, and have hosted several open mics. My music is like the mixtape you had in highschool that you put on when you wanted to chill out with your friends.

Playing music is the thing that makes me feel most alive. I love connecting with audiences and bringing people joy as they sing along to a good song. See my schedule below to see where you can sing along with me next!

I play a variety of covers and original music. 

I cover rock and pop tunes from the 1950s to the early 2000s, including:

  • The Beatles
  • Goo Goo Dolls
  • The Cure
  • Grateful Dead
  • Elliott Smith
  • Wilco
  • Radiohead
  • Red Hot Chili Peppers
  • Gin Blossoms
  • Steely Dan
  • John Denver
  • R.E.M
  • Nirvana
  • Tom Petty
  • … and much more!

My originals combine the sharp folk edge of Elliott Smith with the mellow soulfulness of Nick Drake, and a hint of grunge. 

I'm also one part of a duo called Moonlight Revival (see more below).

Have You Heard Moonlight Revival?

Equal parts grit and grace, Moonlight Revival is the musical collaboration of Brian Lothridge and Lennox WT.

Blending folk, punk, alt, and rock influences, they craft a sound that’s both raw and resonant.

Their debut album, folk punk love songs, was released in February 2026 and can be found on their website. Click the button below to listen!

Book me!

I can provide a mellow atmosphere for your event or be the main attraction - whatever suits your needs. Here's what some of my past bookings have to say:

Haley Unverdorben - Engagement party

"You made the atmosphere of our party so welcoming and calming. I truly can’t thank you enough, and I couldn’t have imagined anyone better for it. You kept everyone entertained while still creating such a relaxed environment. People were able to talk, laugh, and enjoy your music and each other’s company. I seriously can’t get over how perfect it was. Thank you so much for helping make our day so special!"

Brian Lothridge has been sharing his musical talents with people in our Day Habilitation program for the
last year. He is able to connect with the audience through his music and personality. His performances
encourage our participants to be part of the show. They enjoy singing along with songs that multiple
generations know by heart. Brian’s talent is not only his music but his ability to connect with the
audience.
