Versatile drummer and all-around musical wunderkind Ryan Yerdon (Puddle of Mudd, Weezer) began collaborating with composer/producer Nic Rodriquez (Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato) in 2015 forming The Brotherhood here in verdant Portland, Oregon. What has sprung out of this budding partnership are expertly tailored tunes - modern, up-front, danceable and infectious - perfectly focused and laden with hooks.
