Brent Bourgeois was originally from New Orleans then grew up in New Jersey before moving to Texas and eventually Sacramento. In 1984 he formed Bourgeois Tagg with Larry Tagg and went on to get a record deal with Island Records. The group gained airplay on KZAP and around the nation for "Mutual Surrender (What a Wonderful World)" in 1986. The band's next album spawned the top 40 hit "I Don't Mind At All" the following year.

After Bourgeois Tagg broke up, Brent went solo and was signed to Charisma Records, an imprint of Virgin Records, in which he released two albums. He gained airplay from "Dare To Fall In Love" and a few other songs in the 1990s. His 1994 Christian rock album Come Join the Living World was produced by Charlie Peacock, a Sacramento jazz musician who migrated to Nashville. Brent released his first album, Don't Look Back in two decades in 2014. It featured guest appearances from Julian Lennon and Todd Rundgren.
