The Brevet can be traced back to front man Aric Chase Damm’s college days where he realized he had a talent for writing scores to be used in student films.

True to their roots, The Brevet create songs that are cinematic, full of catchy hooks, and blend the excitement of thunderous percussion, electric guitars, and some R&B swagger.
