The Bravery being interviewed at Roxy Chicken Jam

This year’s Roxy Chicken Jam free concert featured The Bravery and N.A.S.A. We had a chance to sit down and talk with our friends The Bravery, before they went snowboarding with Torah Bright.

We found out these guys were active, love Journey and Prince, enjoy nature and want to award Torah a gold medal in dancing. This indie-rock band proved that they didn’t need their city digs to have a good time.

ROXY: First things first, what do you think of Mammoth so far?

TB: Cold!

ROXY: Besides being cold, seeing you guys are from the city, how do you like playing this venue?

TB: Our favorite shows are those we can do right next to activities that we like to do. If we’re playing on a mountain, we can go snowboarding. If we are playing on the beach, we  can right after.

ROXY: What’s been the most unreal, most memorable venue you’ve played?

TB: Times Square, hands down. You can’t top playing, while looking down on 1 million people.

ROXY: How was your last album “Stir The Blood” different from making your previous two albums?

TB: For our last record “Stir The Blood”, we kind of went back to a lot of the aesthetics of the first record. It was a little more do it yourself. We recorded a lot on the road again, used laptops, and we kind of made things more electronic, a little bit darker than things we were putting out right before that.  Now it’s shooting up the charts!

Lastly, we asked The Bravery the most important question of all.  Mariah Carey or Beyoncé?

The answer was a resounding “Beyoncé!” from the group, except Tony. He prefers Mariah. “I just love her voice!”
