In 2002, he came together with three other friends and started a group called ALIENS. Brymo role as a member was vital for the group; his main job was writing their songs. In a period of two years, he wrote over 85 songs but sadly the group parted in 2005.
Brymo moved on to a solo career and released his debut Album ‘BRYMSTONE‘in 2007. His hit single Shawdy was well received and the video gained maximum airplay on MTV base and several other TV and radio platforms.
