Born and raised in Clinton MA, Brian Dziokonski is a beloved father, husband, brother and
friend. As a child, Brian was unusually inquisitive and expressive. Growing up, he felt he was
different from his peers and wondered why he didn’t fit in. As a creative and sensitive person, he
took refuge in nature, music, songwriting and poetry. Thematically, the experience of ‘not fitting
in’ figured prominently in his body of work. Overtime, Brian realized that feeling different
wasn’t so much a defect, but rather a precious ore to be mined.
