Brian was the guitar player in Belfast band, The Tearjerkers (Good Vibrations/Phonogram) who toured with Thin Lizzy, Dexy's Midnight Runners, Doll by Doll and Rachel Sweet and recorded with several high-profile producers such as John Astley and Phil Chapman (Eric Clapton), Chris Hughes (Adam and The Ants, Tears for Fears, Robert Plant, Peter Gabriel) and Laurence Juber (Wings/Al Stewart).
Following the break-up of the Tearjerkers, he relocated to London where he played guitar with Jimmy Bain (Rainbow/Wild Horses/Dio) on demo’s for the band that would eventually become Rogue Male which Jimmy produced and can be heard playing bass on the track, "Rough, Tough and Pretty Too".
Brian relocated to the U.S. where he played guitar on American singer/songwriter Jon Lacabanne's album "Amen", The Groove Monsters debut album and Gary Stipe and Whiskey Hill’s E.P.
Upon returning to Ireland, he recorded all the guitars on Deidre Cunningham's album "Sunny Days" and returned to the U.S. to play a one-off gig in Nashville with "Handsome" Mick Rowe's band, "Nineteen88" before returning to the UK where he joined Brian Connolly in "Sweet" for a UK tour.
He co-wrote the track, "Do Right Man", that appears on the "Jock's Juke Joint - Volume II" CD and formed the Brian Rawson Band, who have gigged constantly and performed in major blues festivals throughout the UK.
