Career

Walsh has released several albums and singles since 2009.[5] His songs and remixes have sold millions of copies.[6] His 2011 album Right Now received positive reviews from Vogue Italia,[7] The Advocate,[8] and Out.[9] and his 2016 album Six Infinite was praised by Time[10] and Paper[11] magazines. In 2009 and 2010 he remixed songs by Adam Lambert and Britney Spears among other artists and reached the top of a Billboard dance chart.[12] His music has been used on commercials and television shows including shows on Bravo, E!, Showtime and The Oprah Winfrey Show, and he composes runway music for shows at New York Fashion Week.[13] He reportedly has stage fright and does not often perform live because of it.[14]

According to Time magazine, "for singer/songwriter and producer Brad Walsh, every song is a chance to tell a story."[10] In that same article Walsh describes his musical style as "guerrilla pop ... it's chaotic, untrained, uninformed—born completely out of passion for what I'm doing."[10] Walsh's 2017 album Antiglot was an experimental collection of songs created "only with vocal layering and manipulation of sounds produced from his body", and the title of the album is a Latin reference to the lack of language in the music.[14] There were no instruments, and no lyrics on the Antiglot album, just vocals.[15] His 2019 album Artbreak was a "pop opera"[16] about his divorce from fashion designer Christian Siriano[16] and included many spoken guest vocal spots from famous actors and actresses, including Danielle Brooks, Cheyenne Jackson, Lena Dunham, Janet Mock, Gabourey Sidibe, Debra Messing, Sarah Rafferty, Carrie Fisher, Nico Tortorella, and Heather Matarazzo.[17][16]

Walsh also has had success as a fashion and celebrity photographer,[18][19] as well as a painter with his work shown at department store Bergdorf Goodman in New York,[20] and he is recognized for his interior design work.[21] He started his own record label, OMGBTW Records.[22]

Personal life

Brad Walsh is reportedly worth $8.5 million as of 2021.[23] He was married to fashion designer Christian Siriano.[16] They lived together in Chelsea, Manhattan with their two dogs named Topper and Bear. They had been together since November 2007, and became engaged in July 2013.[24][25][26] They were married on July 9, 2016, at their vacation home in Danbury, Connecticut.[27][28] On June 25, 2018, Walsh confirmed that he and Siriano had separated the previous month.[29] The pair did not move to make the divorce official until 2021.[30]
