Sounds Like
We built our sound upon the music we grew up on. Our first CD was hailed as a throwback to the heyday of 90's pop punk.
"Straight outta Thousand Oaks, California (the same scene that gave birth to Drive Thru semi-heroes Halifax) come the Braces, a four-piece sloppy’n’snotty pop-punk band reminiscent of some of the last throes of Epitaph’s pop-punk/skate-punk days. In fact, toss an assortment of some of the lesser celebrated Punk-O-Rama samplings from types like Union 13, Bombshell Rocks, Heideroosjes, and Osker into a vat of power chords, wailing harmonies, punchy skate-punk rhythms, and adolescent vocals and the resulting vapors will conjure into the Braces."

"Takes me back to the old sounds of Anti-Flag and the messages of Bad Religion. The Braces have the style that made us all fall in love with punk! Excellent CD"
iTunes Review
NOW we are taking it to the next level and picking up where our forefathers left off. The hooks are bigger, the guitars are heavier, the vocals are poppy when they need to be and not poppy when they don't have to be. Stay tuned, shits gonna hit the fan.

CHECK OUT WHAT THE MUSIC PRESS IS SAYING ABOUT US!
"With a couple of guitars, a bass, and drums, The Braces have created an upbeat, enjoyable sound that is really rare these days. No flashy guitar solos, repetitive keyboards or screaming, just simple three chord punk full of angst and frustration. Fast and heavy, melodic and catchy, this album is pure entertainment....So before you give up on the scene because of All Time Low or Fall Out Boy, listen to The Braces." DYINGSCENE.COM
"Like Skate punk? Go hear the best band you’ve never heard of." PUNKNEWS.ORG (in reference to us)

Hey everyone!
We are The Braces. We are from Southern California and we have been rocking and rolling for about 4 years now. First and foremost we want you to be our friend. We say friend instead of fan for a few reasons; reason number 1: Fan is a very demeaning word and automatically creates a sense of hierarchy that we don't agree with. Reason number 2: Friend is a cool word and we want to make as many cool friends as possible.
We are in the process of writing and recording our second full length album ourselves. We want everyone to hear the songs we are working on, but we don't quite have them at the point where we want them. SOON!
