Brian Leiser

Brian Leiser

Brian Andrew Leiser ("Fast"), member of the band Fun Lovin' Criminals, plays bass, keyboards, harmonica, and the trumpet. He attended Horace Greeley High School in Chappaqua NY, graduating in 1990.

Brian's nickname (and stagename) is "Fast", which was given to him while attending Syracuse University. The name "Fast" is a shortened version of the nickname "Fastman" -- a reference to the speed at which he often spoke.

Brian's start in popular music was as a keyboardist and backup singer for the Westchester, New York 1980's synthpop group, Departure. He moved on in the early 1990's to become the frontman for the electrodance band Mosesonacid, which appeared in the 1995 film "Vibrations" but was dismantled once Fun Lovin' Criminals began to garner greater local recognition.

Fun Lovin' Criminals has enjoyed particular success in Europe but has performed globally. The band's music has been known worldwide.

Brian is currently working on the as-yet untitled Fun Lovin' Criminals 6th studio album, due out late in 2008.
