Life and career

[edit | edit source]

Brett Detar was born April 30, 1978, in Greensburg, Pennsylvania.[8]

He began his musical career as guitarist in the band Pensive, who released an EP called The Subtlety of Silence[9] and a split with EP with fellow Pennsylvania band Seasons In The Field.[10]

In 1997, drummer Jesse Smith recruited Brett to play guitar in the metalcore band Zao. Detar suggested his friend Dan Weyandt come aboard as well.[11] They both appeared on the groundbreaking album Where Blood and Fire Bring Rest and a split CD with Training for Utopia. In 1998, Detar left Zao to pursue what began as a side-project, The Juliana Theory, full-time.[12]

Following the initial dissolution of The Juliana Theory in 2006, Detar moved to Los Angeles and opened a vintage clothes shop and made a massive financial investment by building a studio. Despite the uncertainty, he continue to write songs from time to time.[13][14] Brett also owns a recording studio in Manhattan, New York called Soho Taxidermy.[15] Afterwards, he began work on a solo album, which emerged on November 10, 2010, via his website. Bird in the Tangle was supported by a month long tour in 2011, opening for Tiger Army frontman Nick 13.[16] His second solo album, Too Free to Live, followed on October 8, 2013.[17] The same year, he toured the U.S. with Lindi Ortega.[18]

A number of Detar's solo songs have been featured on several television series, including Nashville,[19] Supernatural,[20] Elementary,[citation needed] Jersey Shore,[21] Friendzone,[22]Snooki & Jwoww, Teen Mom,[23] and Party Down South.[24] His songs were also included in episodes of the acclaimed Marvel Television Netflix shows Daredevil,[25] Jessica Jones, and The Punisher.[citation needed]

He made his debut as a film composer with Paramount Pictures The Devil Inside, which opened in North America on January 6, 2012.[26] Detar reunited with writer/director William Brent Bell for FilmDistrict's 2014 action thriller WER,[27] the 2020 horror sequel Brahms: The Boy II and the 2021 horror film, Separation.[28]
