Bronze Radio Return is an American indie/roots rock band from Hartford, Connecticut. The group was formed by Chris Henderson after he attended the Hartt School of Music at the University of Hartford.[1] The current lineup consists of Henderson (guitar/vocals), Hartt School alumni Rob Griffith (drums/vocals) and Matt Warner (organ/keyboards/vocals), and Patrick "Packy" Fetkowitz (guitar). The name Bronze Radio Return was inspired by an old radio Henderson grew up listening to in his father's art studio in Maine.[2] As of 2021, the band has released five full-length studio albums, one live album, three compilation albums and several EPs.
History
Bronze Radio Return was formed in Hartford, Connecticut in 2007 by Chris Henderson. Producer Doug Derryberry (Bruce Hornsby, Ben Folds Five) discovered Bronze Radio Return at a show in New York City, and produced their first self-titled EP in 2008. In 2009, the band collaborated with producer/multi-instrumentalist Chad Copelin in Nashville to produce their first album, Old-Time Speaker.[3] Songs from Old Time Speaker were licensed by Hollister Co. (Digital Love – Labor Day Playlist 2009[4]) and the new CW Series 90210 (Lo-Fi on Season 3:305 Catch Me if You Cannon[5]). The album also charted in the College Music Journal (CMJ) Top 200, where it peaked at No. 102, charted in the top 10 and even reached No. 1 for weeks on several stations. In the Oklahoma City Audition episode of 12th season of American Idol, the song "Worth Wondering" was used during the pre-audition back-story for contestant Nate Tao.
The band's second album, Shake! Shake! Shake!, was also produced by Chad Copelin, and was recorded in Norman and Tulsa Oklahoma. The album was released on March 29, 2011, and debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard NE Heatseakers Chart.[6] The album also made the College Music Journal (CMJ) Top 200 List, where it peaked at No. 129. Songs from the album have been licensed by American Eagle[7] Hollister,[8] Anthony Bourdain's Travel Channel show The Layover (Season 1, Six Episodes), HBO's 24/7 Flyers/Rangers Road to the NHL Winter Classic,[9] CW's Hart of Dixie (Season 1-116:Tributes and Triangles)[10] and Polo Ralph Lauren.

The PGA commercial was also featured by ESPN.[16] Their single "Further On" was featured in the trailer for Bill Murray movie, St. Vincent.[17] The band's third album, Up, On & Over, was released in 2013 and was produced again by Copelin.[18] The album debuted at #17 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, landed in the Top 30 on the iTunes Alternative chart and Top 130 overall.
