Brandon Paris is a Canadian singer and song-writer, and former front man for the Brandon Paris Band. Paris was born Richard Lee on November 11, 1971 in Winnipeg, Manitoba and was raised in a middle-class household. His family is mixed-race; his mother was from Singapore and his father from Trinidad and Tobago. After his father's business failed, his parents moved to British Columbia, leaving Paris and his brother to live with their grandmother. During high school, Paris began struggling with depression, a condition he attributed to early-childhood sexual abuse by a neighbor. After graduating from high school in 1989, Paris studied Criminology with the intent of becoming a police officer but dropped out to start a company called Express Clothing. He started selling T-shirts out of the trunk of his car and the business flourished, to the point where the line was carried by some of Canada's largest clothing companies, however Paris was unable to keep up with production requirements and the company folded. This, combined with a break-up with a girlfriend, led to a suicide attempt; when he recovered, he joined his parents in British Columbia. More information...
