As for the band's name, how did it originate? "In the song 'Good Time Boys' sung by the Red Hot Chili Peppers there's a line reading 'Modern day braves with one stronghold' and the name of the group emerged from that song", says Joe. Originally called the Modern Day Braves, the group has now changed it to the singular and is officially now known as the Modern Day Brave The group recently completed their third engagement at The Horseshoe in Toronto, one of the top spots in the city for entertainment. Modern Day Brave has delighted audiences throughout Southern and Northern Ontario and their godl is to play at university cities across Canada What's unique about this talented group is that they compose their own style of music. Joe and Eric wfite the lyrics while the rest write the minstrel, thus creating their own original songs. A Halloween dance is being held this Friday evening at the Latcham Centre, featuring the Modern Day Brave, another live band, Yesteryear, and DJ music supplied from Circular Sounds In November, the band is booked at the Moon Room in Oshawa and in December they'll be playing at Sneaky Dee's nightclub in Toronto. All five men admit they have received mixed reactions about their music from their parents, both "good and bad". Since public school all five have shown an active interest in music. Practicing five times a week, they enjoy each other's friendship and individually hope to make music their career. "Growing musically with each other" is how David describes thefr relationship. Recently the group did an "in- store" performance at the HMV Super Store across from the . Eaton Centre. A tape made earlier by the group, Iron Chief Charlie, is currently on the shelf at HMV Super Stores, Sam the Record Man and Circular Sounds, Port Perry A compact disc is currently in the process of being made and the group has just recorded three new songs, "Tired and Old", "What You've Chosen" and "On the Warpath". They hope to have these new releases out in the new year "We're a collective unit" says Mike, "each one of us gives 110 percent at each show.
