Braiden Wood

Music Producer

Braiden Wood on SoundBetter

After touring in the Pop/Rock group Before You Exit for 6 years, Braiden began writing music for film/TV. With placements in advertising and 60+ signed songs, Braiden has become a full-time music producer in Orlando, FL. While specializing in music for advertising, Braiden is also able to produce in various other genres.

Braiden Wood is an accomplished singer-songwriter that has mastered the art of zippy melodies and uplifting lyrics. From his smile to his music, Wood is 360 degrees of good vibes.
Wood first picked up a guitar at age 13 & quickly founded the pop/rock boy band, Before You Exit, serving as their lead guitarist. The band’s success led to extensive touring with acts such as All Time Low, Allstar Weekend, & Olly Murs playing in prestigious venues like the House of Blues, the Fillmore, the Stone Pony, and Irving Plaza. With a desire to branch out from the ‘boy band’ stigma to explore a more mature sound, Wood amicably parted from the band in 2013. He re-emerged in 2014 with a successfully funded Kickstarter campaign & subsequent release of his debut EP "Be Free, Be Strong". Freeze Time, the lead single, exhibits Wood’s trademark sound of dreamy keyboard synth & jangly guitar rhythm. In 2015, Wood released an edgier follow-up EP, Noiz. Wood has developed a cult following in the Philippines where his songs & videos garner nationwide airplay & charting success. Currently, Wood is pursuing sync music as he has gained attention by landing syncs in advertising and by collaborating with other artists. In his spare time, he can be found creating videos & covering songs on his YouTube channel. Wood loves his fans and frequently interacts with his 58k Twitter followers.
