[edit] History

Frontman-songwriter Sam Endicott and keyboardist John Conway were classmates at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY in the late '90s. As freshman, their musical partnership began inauspiciously, playing local bars in mock-ska band Skabba the Hutt, which also included CSI: Miami star Jonathan Togo. The Prime Time Of Your Life. The two went on to play together in numerous bands and recording projects, including new wave outfit Conquistador. Upon moving to NYC in early '00s, Endicott switched from bass guitar to vocals and began writing the music that would later become the Bravery. Guitarist Michael Zakarin joined after answering an ad in a local paper, and brought with him bassist Mike Hindert, a classmate of his from George Washington University in Washington, DC. Drummer Anthony Burulcich was met through mutual friends in NY band Bishop Allen.

After playing its first gig at the Stinger Club in Brooklyn in November of '03 (opening for The Animators), the Bravery's post-punk-influenced dance rock was all the rage.

A residency at Arlene's Grocery and whispers on the street eventually led the Bravery to a recording contract with Island Def Jam in the States and Loog in the U. K. The Unconditional EP followed in early 2005. The Village Voice proclaimed the Bravery to be "New York's Official Next Big Thing" while MTV and Rolling Stone hailed them as an artist to watch.
