The band formed in 2000 by Tom Hamilton (vocals, guitar), Tom McKee (keyboards, vocals), Clay Parnell (bass, vocals), and Rick Lowenberg (drums). They first released a live album, Elements, in 2001 while regularly touring the Northeastern parts of the United States. They even performed every Thursday at Rex's in West Chester, Pennsylvania during their beginning.
For their first record for a music label, This Feeling's Called Goodbye, the band was produced by Jon Altschiller (Dave Matthews Band, Phish).
Brothers Past has toured nationally across the United States, playing over 650 shows since their 2000 formation, including appearances at Wakarusa, Bonnaroo [2] and SXSW.[3] In the middle of 2006, it was announced that Lowenberg would be leaving the band to pursue environmental law and that Ilya Stemkovsky, formerly of OM Trio would take over for him.[4]
