Brian's latest album, Toast of the Town Vol. 2, a follow-up to Toast of the Town Vol. 1, will be released on April 24, 2026. Volume 1 was nominated for the “Recording of the Year Award” by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets (MAC). Both albums, accompanied by the Tom LaMark Orchestra, are comprised of swing numbers and ballads from the Great American Songbook and feature a “big band” sound.

Of his recording, “I Know More Now,” entertainment writer John Hoglund said: “De Lorenzo has a penchant for story songs that pack a profound punch. In this regard, he is always committed and gives thrilling interpretations of old and new gems that speak from the soul.”

He appeared with the Western New York Chamber Orchestra and the Little Apple Big Band in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of The Rockefeller Arts Center at the State University of New York at Fredonia.

Brian’s debut recording Found Treasures was nominated for the “Recording of the Year Award” by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets (MAC). He is also featured extensively on the original cast recording Made in America: Vaudeville Songs, a tribute to the Gumm (Judy Garland) family in which he starred at Don’t Tell Mama in New York City.
