brody

José "Brody" Martinez was born in
Puerto Rico and moved to Orlando in
the '80s. On the first day of his senior
year in high school, surrounded by
unfamiliar faces in an unfamiliar town,
he decided to take a chance and join
the school choir. His natural talent
quickly made Brody a stand-out: He's
been singing ever since, and prides
himself on the diligence with which he
works to perfect his skills.
