Brian Vander Ark is the lead singer and principal songwriter for the multi-platinum
alternative rock band The Verve Pipe, recognized worldwide for their radio hits
Photograph, Hero, Happiness Is, Never Let You Down, and the #1 smash single The
Freshmen.

In addition to their success on radio, TV and film, sold-out concert dates throughout the
U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia, features in Rolling Stone, Interview Magazine and
many more, and videos on MTV and VH1, Brian and the band have made numerous
television appearances, including ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’ and ‘Late Night With
David Letterman.’

During breaks from his work with The Verve Pipe, Brian set out on his own to launch a
multifaceted solo career that has included releasing four acclaimed independent studio
albums - Resurrection, Angel Put Your Face On, Brian Vander Ark and Magazine as well
as his collections of cover songs called Planet Sunday Sessions, Volume 1 & II. He’s
also collaborated with actor/musician Jeff Daniels on the Simple Truths, an album of
original Americana songs while continuing to write and record original music with The
Verve Pipe, including their most recent independent album, Reconciled, set for release
in early 2025.

After years of large-scale touring, Brian was challenged by a need for a more personal
fan experience. In response, he created the “Lawn Chairs and Living Rooms” house
concert series, performing over 900 intimate shows in the homes of fans across
America. He’s also a sought after featured speaker, telling his compelling story of
success and reinvention to both motivate and inspire the management and staff of
corporations, financial institutions, schools, non-profits and more.

Whether solo or with The Verve Pipe, Brian performs in concert throughout North
America, including notable appearances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits Festival,
Lincoln Center, Hangout Music Festival, SummerStage in Central Park, and many more.
