Friends of Brad Memorial Foundation

Description

Who was Brad?
Bradley Edward Rozman lived for music. He used it to create beauty and meaning--enriching his own life and the lives of those around him. He discovered a love for drumming at a young age and pursued this passion with vigor for the rest of his life. After finishing his graduate studies in percussion performance, Brad was active in the Duluth area music scene, most notably as the drummer for both High Volt Rustler and Equal Xchange. Brad’s life was cut short in May 2009 when he died unexpectedly of a seizure. His drumming is immortalized in the bands’ newest record releases.
