A graduate of Bullock Creek High School in Midland, MI, Brandon Bissell has worked in professional sports since 1998. In 2015, Bissell left the team-side of the sports world and started his own business, Ballpark Music (“BPM”). BPM books and produces postgame concerts for professional and collegiate teams, as well as handling design, creative and execution for some of the largest events on the globe, like MLB All Star Week. As a member of the Recording Academy, best known for their Grammy Awards show, Bissell has extensive knowledge of current trends in the music industry, which helps teams land the right artists to maximize ticket sales.
After graduating from Central Michigan University, Bissell started his sports career with the Cincinnati Bengals in 1998 in ticketing. In 2000, he accepted a job with the Detroit Lions in the Community Affairs department. The department was inducted into the World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame in 2002, being named the best community affairs department in professional sports.
In 2003, Bissell took on a new role overseeing gameday live entertainment. As part of his responsibilities, he was the team-lead for the annual United Way Thanksgiving Day Halftime Shows, working with musical performers Mariah Carey, Taylor Swift, Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Wyclef, Enrique Inglesias, John Fogerty, Boys II Men, The Goo Goo Dolls, John Mellencamp and more.
During his time in the NFL, he helped in production for six Super Bowls (Super Bowls 2003 – 2008). He also was an associate producer for three NFL Pro Bowls in Hawaii (2006 – 2008).
In his last role with a team before starting BPM, Bissell was hired by the Atlanta Braves in 2008 as the Senior Entertainment Manager and Talent Buyer. He was responsible for live entertainment at the stadium, including booking and producing more than 50 postgame concerts on the field, which later led to Bissell starting BPM.
Bissell lives in Roswell, GA, with his wife, Lauryn, and two boys, Beckett (10) and Miller (7). He also currently serves as Head Coach for Beckett’s 4th Grade Hornets and Miller’s 1st Grade Bananas basketball teams… the toughest job of them all!
