Brian Lee Pittman was born on October 21 in 1980 in Canton, Ohio. He is the bass player for the Christian Metal band Inhale Exhale. He is the former bass player for the Christian rock band Relient K, which he started with best friends Matt Thiessen and Matt Hoopes.
He played bass for Relient K from the band's beginning in 1998 until Bleach's farewell show on August 29, 2004, when he left the band to pursue a career in landscaping. He also looked to play a different genre of Christian music, and said before that he grew up liking metal music more. Besides playing in Inhale Exhale, he now has reportedly started a landscaping company called "Lawnsharks". Some people think that the song "For the Band", which is found on Relient K's Employee of the Month EP, was written about his leaving, but that is unlikely, as that song was recorded two years before his departure.
Before his departure from Relient K, he recorded Mmhmm (the band's fourth album), along with long time bandmates Matt Thiessen, Matt Hoopes, and Dave Douglas. He also returned to play with the band during their cd release show for Mmhmm on November 1, 2004 at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio. His new band, Inhale Exhale, released their first album on November 21, entitled The Lost. The Sick. The Sacred. Pittman is still currently living in Canton, Ohio.
