Early
years
Blade was
born and raised in Shreveport,
Louisiana. The first music he
experienced was gospel and
songs of praise at the Zion Baptist Church where his father, Brady L.
Blade, Sr., has been the pastor for fifty-two years. In elementary
school, music appreciation classes were an important part of his
development and at age nine, he began playing the violin. Inspired by
his older brother, Brady
Blade, Jr., who had been the drummer at
Zion Baptist Church, Brian shifted his focus to the drums throughout
middle and high school.[2]
