Wendell B. BUY CDS

Comparison to his idols Freddie Jackson, Luther Vandross, Barry White and Will Downing don't bother Wendell Brown whose love affair with music began at the age of five when he made his foray into the industry by joining the gospel group the Sensational Wonders. He spent a good ten years singing for the Lord before his vocal tastes were whetted by the sounds of rhythm and blues. At first he had to hide my interest from Mamma. She was into the church: she didn't play that, he laughs. As Wendell B. reached maturity, both in years and vocal ability, he began performing with vocal groups such as Dream, which he formed in high school, touring his hometown and surrounding areas. It was then that he really learned the importance of stage presence through the tutelage of local legends Marvin Rice, lead vocalist for Masters Touch and Visions lead vocalist Carl Homes, who schooled him in perfecting runs and other vocal techniques.

The decision to go solo after having spent two decades in groups was coupled by the desire to follow into the entrepreneurial footsteps of others in the industry.  Under his full name, Wendell Brown, he released the album "Make It Good For Ya". It took another seven years for his next outing "Good Times", which created a buzz in the Southern Soul market. From there his popularity continued to on albums like 2010's "In Touch With My Southern Soul" through his 2020 album "Real Talk". He became one of the best selling artists in the genre as of 2023.

Wendell passed away in August of 2023.
