Frederick Dare
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
The singer, song writer Frederick Dare Brockington has been gracing stages since he took naps in his Kindergarten class, but this singing sensation is no milk and cookies. Listening to the sounds of this finely tuned and well trained vocalist will leave your musical hunger satisfied.
Brockington grew up in Hampton, Virginia. He began his singing career in a small Pentecostal Church, The Church of Jesus. There he sang to his and the audiences’ hearts’ content. He became the president of the Mass Choir and led the choir as they toured the city. He also took on the competitive realm of music in his high school career. Competing for Hampton High School Acapella Choir, Brockington successfully represented his school in state and regional competitions.
Brockington held to his grassroots of Gospel music, but later developed more as a great R&B artist as his venues changed. His venues changed from church services and choir competitions to weddings and local shows in Hampton. Before Brockington’s arrival to Atlanta, GA, he wrote and recorded in a Hampton studio with Writer/Producer Mike Crowell. Together they wrote many songs and recorded hits like: “In My Dreams” and “Holding On.”
