Matt Tilles was posting TikToks of covers and his own songs when Keegan Melaniphy reached out after hearing them, which is how The Braymores actually started in 2022 — a band formed over social media before the four members, rounded out by Russell Oren and Connor Kohanzo, ever played a show together.

Talking to Trees, their 2023 debut EP, led into Who You'd Have Been, a 2024 full-length that spends 12 songs turning over life's singular, unrepeatable choices — a theme that reads almost like commentary on their own path, since they've since signed with Red Light Management and ROAM Artists and are already working on a follow-up, When The Lights Went Out.
