Brandon Bailey Johnson- el Guinness World Records

Brandon Bailey Johnson-
Brandon Bailey Johnson is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer and arranger. Oh yes, and as of Aug. 12, a world record holder. Brandon, 12, is in the book of Guinness World Records for the "World's Youngest Professional Music Producer." "I really don't know how to describe how I feel, I really can't," Brandon said. "It's a privilege and an honor to be in the Guinness Book of World Records, that is certain." In February, Johnson released his debut album called "My Journey." The Texas musical prodigy wrote all seven songs, sang lead and backing vocals, and played guitar, bass, keyboard, drums and percussion on his pop-rock debut album. He also composed, arranged, produced and recorded the album in his home studio. Brandon received his Guinness World Records certificate on February 21, 2015, making it official. "I never really thought about it until the morning my mom woke up and told me I was in," he said. "I mean, I would read the books for fun but I never thought I would actually be in it one day." Nancy Johnson, Brandon's mother, said she was surprised when she received the email informing her that Brandon was in the book of Guinness World Records. "I was absolutely stunned," she said. Brandon has been in the studio producing more albums. But he is taking it all in stride. "I think of myself as any other 12-year-old," he said. "I still go outside and run around in the street with my friends. When I'm not busy, I'm playing with my brother and my sister just being normal kids." Victor Martinez- El Paso Times
