Biography

Hey, we’re My Lady Four! Whether this is your first time checking out our music or you are a longtime follower of the band, we appreciate you taking the time to check out our page - so thank you!

We recently released a concept album titled Everyone Pays the Gatekeeper, and we're really proud of it. The album was recorded with Jordan Schmidt (All Time Low, Sing It Loud, Quietdrive). So far the response to it has been overwhelmingly positive as it has been getting the attention of everyone from Alternative Press to iDobi Radio’s “The Gunz Show” and absolutepunk.net to name just a few of the places that have been showing us love.

Have we mentioned that we love to tour and see all of you? In fact, we recently returned from a three month tour and odds are if you stopped into a Panera or Kinkos in the last few months, you probably saw us strung out on coffee working our butts off. Didn’t get the chance to catch us on the road? No worries! We love chatting so it’s up to YOU to hit us up on AIM, Twitter, or Stickam.

  • Bio

    In This Life Or The Next is the sophomore album by My Lady Four, the Minneapolis-based quartet of Brian Schwarz (vocals, guitar), Brian Carpenter (drums), Francis Fisher (lead guitar), and Peter Iversen (bass). The album was born in a few weeks during spring when the band got a phone call from producer, Jordan Schmidt (All Time Low, Sing It Loud), saying he had an opening in the studio. With some tracks already written during their previous tour, the rest of the songs came together when the band felt a torrent of creativity after what had seemed, to them, like an interminably long dry spell. Brian Schwarz, with the help on two tracks by Francis, shared the songs with the others, and over the weeks that followed, these rough-edged melodies became what they are now: a fearless gathering of songs, but deceptive that at their core, still reflect the deductions of a man in transition. Brian Schwarz is not a new writing voice. After his former band, Pleasant Street Conspiracy, Schwarz started writing songs while attending the University of Minnesota. Wanting to make a name for himself in the music industry, Brian pulled a Kanye West and dropped out of college to pursue music full time. He auditioned more than 250 people from an ad that he had posted on Craigslist, Brian "Carp" Carpenter being one of them; Carp's post script assuring Brian not to worry, "I won't kill you." Growing up in the tech savvy age, My Lady Four saw the future of music being a DIY model, and recorded and released their first EP, Everyone Pays the Gatekeeper, independently. With the addition of Peter Iversen followed by Francis Fisher during the recording of EPTG, the band finally came to be something much more, a meeting of the minds musically and a brotherhood. Brian, using his music business know-how, booked the band on a three month tour along the east coast. In charge of their own promotion, they were able to prove to themselves that you didn't need a big label backing you to survive. And survival is the name of the game. Jake Scherer, of New Medicine who guest-vocaled on EPTG, said to Schwarz, "You gotta act like you'll never get signed," which Brian has carried with him to this day. With this drive and determination, My Lady Four has been able to not only survive, but to succeed and show everyone what they've become.
