Amplify Brian - Hope Needs a Loud Crowd

Support for Brian - A Friend Worth Fighting For

Our dear friend Brian is facing one of life’s hardest turns, a rare form of lung cancer that has required him to step away from the rhythm of daily life and focus fully on healing. The good news? Treatment is working. But even with that hope, the emotional, physical, and financial toll is staggering.

Between treatments, tests, specialist visits, and missed work, the weight is far too heavy to carry without a village behind him.

Brian is the kind of person who shows up for his friends, for his loved ones, for strangers who needed a smile or a helping hand. He is kind, hilarious, loyal, and generous to the core. His life is a force of good, and if you know him, you already know that.

This GoFundMe has been created by those who love him, as fellow musicians, friends, chosen family, and grateful witnesses to his light. Every contribution will go directly toward Brian’s medical expenses and quality of life care, ensuring he can focus on what matters most: fighting, healing, and holding onto hope.

What many don’t realize is just how much time and energy treatment takes, not just the procedures themselves, but the recovery, the travel, the time away from work. While Brian is giving everything he has to his recovery, we want to make sure he never has to worry about how the bills will get paid or how to make ends meet.

If Brian’s voice has ever moved you…

If his presence has ever made you laugh, cry, or feel alive…

If you believe in the power of music to heal and the power of people to show up....

please give what you can, and share this message wide.

Let’s remind Brian just how loved, held, and supported he truly is.

We’ve got you, Brian. We’re walking this road with you, every note, every step.

With fierce love and deep gratitude,

Nick, Amanda & the Circle of Friends Who Love Him
