BETA Records - Your music matters!

Brad Lee, singer, songwriter, and guitarist for "Auto Defiance" was born into a family of musical affluence and song. His grandmother was a classical pianist, having taught, composed, and performed in the church for 50 years. His Uncle was a Broadway Opera singer. With his first instrument at age 7, he began writing songs at age 13, singing, recording, and performing with his own act at age 19.

Gaining experience in his early 20's writing, recording, and crafting his sound, he performed shows with bands and artists while in the U.S. Army, Louisville, KY. and Nashville, TN. Captivated by powerful emotional singers such as Bono, Morrisey and Jeff Buckley, he pushed himself to more interesting songwriting, and began finding a voice of his own.

Brad Lee now has formed an alliance of hard working all-stars from all over the country. Now with a focused, talented and dedicated band that are a part of the music, they are moving to the next level. A sound marked by high energy guitars and unique vocal melodies the likeness of early U2, Radiohead, or ColdPlay; music with an open atmosphere. Experienced, with pro gear, and a desire to win, the Auto Defiance caught the attention of Jazz Rock drummer Caleb Dolister, who's unique approach to percussion was a great addition to the band.

Currently recording an intense debut album and booking weekly acoustic shows while putting together the final member line-up for a complete live band.
