Jim Brickman News and Information Jim Brickman is one of few American composers to break into the mainstream, thanks in part to his original love songs that pair him with popular vocalists.

Brickman signed with Windham Hill Records and released "No Words" in 1994. "Rocket to the Moon" was the first solo instrumental single to ever be ranked on the Billboard charts.
