Born and raised in Lincolnton, North Carolina, Brett began playing steel guitar at the age of 6. He grew up with many musical influences in the family such as his dad, Don Crisp, Ray Crisp (Fiddle player for Ray Price, Kitty Wells, & Ernest Tubb), Terry Crisp ( Steel player for Reba McEntire, Ricky Skaggs, & Joe Diffie). Brett spent several years playing locally around his hometown for several country bands and also played many years in church. As well as steel guitar, he also plays lap steel, and dobro. Brett has been with Terri’s band since February 2009.
