Currently performing in Las Vegas as the drummer for the show “Pin Up”, and the Las Vegas production of Mannheim Steamroller, “Brian is an act on his own,” says Las Vegas’ Claire Voyant. Drummer, percussionist, music director, educator, clinician, arranger, and composer, Brian Czach (pronounced “Zak”) has been wowing audiences with his exceptional musicianship all around the world. As a “tremendously talented young drummer” (Las Vegas Sun), Brian has made a splash in the desert city of Las Vegas as Musical Director for such shows as “VINYL”, “It’s All About the Music”, and “Body & Soul”, as well as his own critically acclaimed jazz group, the Brian Czach Trio. As Las Vegas Review Journal quoted it, “With Czach as Musical Director... good jazz taste prevails”.
Born into a musical family of three generations in suburban upstate New York, Brian was already a gifted drummer even at an early age. At age 9, he started taking private drum lessons and at age 11, Brian started playing professionally with the family band on weekends.
Brian attended the Ithaca College School of Music, where he got his performance degree studying with world-renowned marimba player Gordon Stout and jazz drum set with Steve Brown. Thereafter, Brian performed on cruise ships backing up a variety of headliner acts and production shows.
In November 2001, Brian made the move to New York City where he gained invaluable musical experience. Subsequently, Brian reunited with his high school friend Tony DeSare, and recorded “Want You”, “Last First Kiss”, and “Radio Show” for Telarc Records at the famed Avatar Studio in New York City. Performing with Tony, Brian enjoyed success playing in venues such as Birdland, The Oak Room, Feinstein’s, NBC Rainbow Room, and Café Carlyle in New York City. Brian was also fortunate to perform Asia several times including Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong and The Blue Note in Tokyo. In addition, Brian began performing with headliner singer and multi- instrumentalist Domenick Allen (Foreigner) and so began an ongoing musical relationship as his Musical Director and drummer.
Since moving with his wife to Las Vegas in December 2007, Brian has shared the stage with Clint Holmes, Ronnie Foster, Terry Fator, Zowie Bowie, & Lon Bronson All-Stars, among many others. As Music Director, Brian arranged and charted all of the music for Rick Faugno’s critically acclaimed “Body & Soul” at the Las Vegas Hilton. Most recently, Brian is once again sought by Tony DeSare to be his Music Director when he performs as an opening act for Don Rickles. Brian’s jazz trio has also received recent accolades from the San Diego County News, “The Mandarin Oriental (Las Vegas) hit a homerun when it booked the Brian Czach Trio to perform”, in which they performed for 8 months.
When not performing, Brian spends most of his time in his home studio where he is becoming in demand as a session player, writing, arranging, and teaching drum lessons privately and online.
