About Me

About Me

Brian Stout ... Who is Brian Stout? I was born in Southeastern Ohio and have grown up in church and been around God's people all my life. At the young age of thirteen, I gave my heart and life to Jesus Christ. I've never regretted that decision. When I look back on my life, I am amazed how God has blessed in so many areas of my life.

My Family

At the age of nineteen, I married a beautiful young girl named Nita who I love and cherrish today after eighteen years of marriage. At age twenty-one, God blessed the two of us with a bouncing baby boy, Christoper. My family and I now reside in Hamilton, OH where we attend Victory Pentecostal Tabernacle.

My Love For Music

Singing and music has always been my passion. I started singing as a young boy and never stopped. Also at the age of thirteen, I began playing the piano. Hours upon hours of practice would drive my mother crazy! It all came natural to me and as I grew, my talents grew with me. God began to bless me when I sang and it was wonderful when the anointing was there. In my early twenties, I traveled and played piano for several groups and occasionally getting the oportunity to sing.

Redemption

In 1993, I started my own group. We called the group Redemption. This started a new chapter in my life and in my music. We traveled and sang together for little more than three years at which time I moved to Georgia for a short time because of my job.

In the three years that we traveled, we had the oportunity to lead many souls to Christ. God's hand was upon us and helped us to bring the Gospel to a lost and dying world through song. I would have never imaged having so much fun traveling with "the boys" as much as I did.

After returning to Ohio in 1998, I didn't feel traveling and singing was what God had for me in my life. So, I began working in our home church and waited for God's direction in my life.

Now A Solo Artist

In 2002, I felt God deal with me to do a solo project. I really wanted to sing and travel again, but I didn't feel it was time. I was a bit confused on why I felt to do another project without feeling the call to travel and sing. So, I recorded my first solo project. Over the next couple of years, I realized why God didn't want me to travel. I was needed in other areas of ministry within the church.

Over the past couple of years or so, I have felt an urgency in my heart towards a minstry ... but where ... what? Last year, I started an online music store Redemption Music. This site allows me to help the spread of the Gospel in song. Many of the Holiness artists, like myself, had no real outlet for their projects. This was a way I felt I could help. This site has been a wonderful success and a blessing to both the artists and the listener.

I've had several oportunities over the past year to sing and it's been GREAT! I've certainly missed the excitement of being on stage. A month or so ago, I felt God urging me to do another solo project. So, by the help of God, I'm making preparations to go back into the studio once again. Where will it lead? I'm not sure, but I know if it is time to travel again, God will make the way and scheduling will take care of itself.

Thank you for stopping by my site. May God richly bless you and your families. Who knows, maybe sometime in the near future, I'll get to meet some of you in a singing.

Because of Calvary,
Brian Stout
