金·布瑞克曼，出生于1961年11月20日，是一名美国音乐家。
Jim Brickman（金·布瑞克曼），1961年11月20日出生在美国俄亥俄，儿童时代就开始接触音乐，且听过不少六十年代初的儿歌，直至10岁，他终于拥有生平第一部钢琴，并藉此大展其音乐才华。19岁在克利夫兰音乐学院就读时，他是全校古典音乐结构和表演课程的差生。布瑞克曼说，“每个人都专注于对古典的感觉，但我却期待研究主流音乐。”“创作音乐对我而言是一件非常自然的事。”19岁的布瑞克曼在校园中被认为是音乐殿堂中的邪派人物。做一名商业作曲家是布瑞克曼的梦想，当他把本身创作的乐曲录音带寄到纽约顶尖的广告公司时，他即成为金·汉森和汉森协会的重要委托人，并为儿童电视节目制作音乐。同时，布瑞克曼与汉森协会亦为迪士尼的电视与电影音乐工作效劳。这些对于布瑞克曼与汉森协会合作为迪士尼作曲奠定了基础。
不久，布瑞克曼开始创作一些广告曲等商业短曲，他开始为自己的公司（Brickman Arrangement）以及其他的一些知名公司如 Pontiac、The Gap、The Walt Disney Company 和 McDonald's 谱曲，后来他与 Jim Henson 和 Associates 搭档为 Muppets 和 Sesame Street 写曲。
随后，布瑞克曼期望突破商业短曲（广告曲）创作的限制并开始他自己的录音事业，1994年他与 Windham Hill 签约并发行了《No Words 尽在不言中》。《No Words 尽在不言中》中的一首单曲《Rocket To The Moon》成为Billboard Top 排行榜上进入前40名的第一首乐器独奏曲。1995年发行了《By Heart》，进入“the adult contemporary marke”并挤进了TOP10。《Hero's Dream》还被收录为NBC的夏季奥运会宣传歌曲。
1997年，布瑞克曼发行了两张专辑《Picture This》和《the Gift》，《Picture This》这张专辑中邀请了佳宾 Martina McBride 和萨克斯风演奏家 Boney James 与其合奏；1998年发行了《Visions of Love》；1999年发行了《Destiny》；在2000年发行的《My Romance: An Evening with Jim Brickman》专辑中，布瑞克曼生平第一次自己演唱。这张专辑邀请了 Olivia Newton-John、Donny Osmond 及 Dave Koz 等嘉宾合作演出；2001年他发行了《Simple Things》；2002年他推出了《Love Songs & Lullabies》且开始巡回演出，一个同名的PBS节目也由媒体播出了。
布瑞克曼的音乐风格非常之广泛。他曾同 Pam Tillis、Martina McBride、Michael W. Smith、Carly Simon、Billy Porter 及其他各种类型的艺术家合作。由于唱片发行的巨大成功和音乐会的叫座使其在音乐界拥有了自己的一席之地。
布瑞克曼是新世纪曲风中最杰出的作曲人和钢琴手之一。 在乐坛Brickman素有“钢琴诗人”之美誉，事实上他善于谱写憾动人心的抒情乐曲。除了弹奏钢琴，布瑞克曼还是一位知名的作曲家和演员，现为Brickman系列工作室的负责人。也曾替七喜、新力、麦当劳、耐克、露华浓和 AT&T 等企业创作过广告音乐。
除了在广播音乐方面的成就，布瑞克曼还荣获许多音乐奖项，包括休斯顿国际电影节大奖、伦敦国际电影奖、克雷奥斯奖、泰利斯奖和安迪奖，他还为一些著名的卡通片作曲，如《布兰特船长》、《希望孩子》等等。
布瑞克曼工作室主要为广播、电影及电视的原创音乐服务，他的周末电台节日《你的周末》被许多海滨城市的75个电台选中进行播放，金 凯利、汤姆 克鲁斯、惠特妮 休斯顿等巨星曾作为该节目的嘉宾。
布瑞克曼秉持着对音乐的崇高理念和一份敏感的市场感觉，他的名字在世界不胫而走，更被PBS赞扬为“全美最棒、最浪漫的作曲家、钢琴家及演奏家”。
布瑞克曼近些年的作品有为迪士尼电视频道创作的电视影片和现场录播电视专辑的音乐，还有有麦当劳和百事可乐赞助的1993年地球日的儿童音乐志辑。
在过去的这十年，如果说有谁堪称新世纪乐坛最具有商业魅力的钢琴演奏者，那么，布里克曼当之无愧。他有着精湛而不落俗套的演奏技巧和作曲才华，外型俊秀，同时在舞台上更充满着幽雅和诙谐兼具的台风，组合成令人难以抗拒的魅力。从他成名以来所推出的专辑，大部分都夺下了NEW AGE专集排行的冠军。称他为当代新世纪乐坛的钢琴王子，毫不为过。
