Hello folks, and welcome to that necessary evil we call THE BIO. Necessary, because if you are reading this, you probably are unfamiliar with me and my music. Evil, because most of the time these things are terribly inaccurate. They are usually chock full of self-serving b.s., coupled with some description of the band that reflects what they wish they sounded like as opposed to what they actually sound like. They are littered with such things as, "a combination of led zeppelin, ac/dc, and the beatles, with a touch of nirvana, and the rolling stones!", or "if black Sabbath and pearl jam conceived a child while listening to neil young, this is what it would sound like". Anyway, you get the picture. So with that in mind, I will try to keep this short and simple. My name is jonathan bright, I live in Nashville, and have been playing music with various bands my whole life. I started out on the drums, moved on to the guitar, then dabbled on bass and keyboards. After a few semi-successful runs in a few bands, I decided it was time for the "solo project". I figured, what the hell, I will just play and sing everything myself, then I will have nobody to blame if it sucks. I maxed out the credit cards, booked some time with producer jay joyce, loaded up my drums and guitars, and began recording like a man possessed (or, more accurately, like a man who is on the clock). those tracks became the self released, RADIO FREE TENNESSEE, and are available below. while putting together a band to peform live, i connected with a group of like-minded rockers, and the results were so good that we felt our new combo deserved it's own name, DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS, and we fucking rock. presently, i am playing with D.W.C. and have built a studio at the house, where i am working on some side projects, as well as working on the new D.W.C. tracks. so if you are ready to rock, then check out some tracks, and buy 'em if you like (your friends will think you are cool). be sure to check out the D.W.C. myspace page (my top friend), and check back often, as i will be posting tracks from all of my projects, both past and present. like the great philosopher brian johnson once declared, FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK, WE SALUTE YOU!

Jonathan, Hope you'll come out to MOD NIGHT tomorrow night (Monday, July 21st) at The Rutledge. Kink Ador, Saul Zonana and my band are playing. Mini skirts and skinny ties get in free and it's a fun night of music. Take care, Britt
