Recording artist and film actor, Shawn Michael Perry formed the band, ONLY THE BRAVE.

Over the years, Shawn and ONLY THE BRAVE have opened for artists such as the JEFF HEALY GROUP, RANDY BACHMAN, (Bachman-Turner Over-Drive) BARE NAKED LADIES and MARY YOUNGBLOOD (2003 Grammy winner), among others.

Shawn is not your average musician. He is a seasoned performer who has made his mark in film, radio, television and stage. His performance experience is vast, ranging from stage work with the LA-based Roby Theater''s production of "Ghost Dance" to appearances in feature films such as "The Last of the Mohicans", "My Indian Summer" and television''s "Murder She Wrote".

This film is quickly gaining acclaim since it premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival and is now showing in theaters in the U.S. His latest film appearance is in the Disney feature film "Hidalgo", starring Viggo Mortensen (Lord of the Rings).

In February, 2003 Shawn joined forces with veteran rocker, producer and bassist John Avila to produce his latest CD, Run 2 U. The CD was recorded at Avila''s studio, Brando''s Paradise in San Gabriel, CA. Avila is internationally known for his eleven year run and groundbreaking work as Oingo Boingo''s bassist/producer and for his two-year stint as the house bassist on FOX Network''s "Culture Clash" television series.

Run 2 U is an epic journey of songs. It was created with internationally known, seasoned musicians. Bassist Louie Ruiz (of el Chicano), drummer Jerry Angel, (Carol King, Dwight Yokham, and Australia''s Divinyls); guitarist Rene Reyes (Act of Faith). Shawn''s songwriting and stunning vocal ability defines and redefines the classic rock genre. The title track, Run 2 U and two others from the CD, If I and Freedom have already made their global debut as the featured soundtrack music on Marlboro Classic Clothing''s Fall/Winter 2003-04 campaign film. Shawn also appears in the film. Marlboro Classic Clothing is a European based high-end clothing line affiliated with Marzotti International.
