He rode the waves with the independent band Dispatch for nine years until July 2004 when the band played its epic finale in Boston. “The Last Dispatch,” drew an estimated 110,000 people. While it marked both the trios final concert together and the culmination of nine years of brilliant music, it so began Braddigans solo career.

Braddigan carries on with the Dispatch legacy, spending time building
relationships both locally and overseas, investing in a community of
listeners who desire more than just music. His first solo album, Watchfires, released in February 2005 on his new label Third Surfer Music.

Braddigan is an intense soul, a visionary living a wild and traveled life with a clear purpose of bringing people together. Whether he’s touring in the states or working in villages and orphanages in Central or South America, his approach is the same, “Its never what you do in life, but the heart with which you do it.”
