Brad Howell is an American keyboardist, pianist, composer and singer, known as the singer who provided the vocals for German band Chilly and the actual vocals lip-synced by Rob Pilatus for the musical duo Milli Vanilli.
[1][2] When Howell became a keyboardist and pianist, he appeared on chat shows and other programs featuring music.
[citation needed] During one of these appearances, he came to the attention of producer Frank Farian, who wanted him to provide the vocals that would later be attributed to the duo Milli Vanilli.
Subsequently Farian decided to form a band using all of the vocalists who did the singing for the act, which he called The Real Milli Vanilli.
[2] The Real Milli Vanilli appeared on many talk shows as performers, one award-winning ceremony in Germany and toured in America.
