About Brandon Tomasello
At only 8 years old, Brandon Tomasello picked up his first record from his grandparents. The minute he heard the complex harmonies of saxophones, trumpets, and trombones he was in love! While other kids of his era were into R&B and Hip Hop, Brandon was sitting back enjoying the big band sound!
At the age of 19, Brandon was ready to show the world that big band music still had a place in his generation. He opened at Resorts Casino Hotels Superstar Theater to a sold-out crowd in Atlantic City. This led to a 6-month residency, making Tomasello the youngest entertainer in Atlantic City history to have his own headlining, extended stay show. Brandon has gone on to play at Borgata, Golden Nugget, Hard
Rock, Harrah's, Tropicana, and many other top venues. He has worked with SNL alum Joe Piscopo, who gave him his nickname, “The Kid.”
In 2020 Brandon recorded his first full length studio album titled My Kind Of Swing, conducted by his long time musical director and drummer, Mike Nigro, with arrangements written by Ed Vezinho. My Kind Of Swing is available on all streaming platforms. Brandon just finished recording his second studio album for Soundplex Records, with the City Rhythm orchestra. The album features arrangements written by Billy Byers, for Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie Orchestra that were never previously recorded. The album was released in January 2025.
