Brad Hawkins

From starring in a #1-rated, syndicated children's television show, to 2 Top Ten country music videos, and a supporting role in the critically acclaimed Richard Linklater film, Boyhood, actor/recording artist Brad Hawkins has covered some ground in his career. A native of Dallas, Texas, he began his acting career in 1994 with the lead role in the children's television series V.R. Troopers (1994). Originally presented as a sister show to the worldwide hit Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1993), "V.R. Troopers" aired successfully for two years, achieved #1 ratings and currently airs internationally. Upon completion of the series, Brad began the move toward prime-time through guest appearances on Step by Step (1991) and Walker, Texas Ranger (1993). In 1996 he opted to take a hiatus from acting to pursue a lifelong dream in music, signing a recording contract with Curb/Universal Records in Nashville. His high-octane live show blended rock n' roll with country, and earned him opening spots with such artists as Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith, and The Dixie Chicks. After three years Brad had performed over 400 shows and charted two #1 videos on C.M.T. and G.A.C.
