history
Micky & the Motorcars originally came from Stanley , Idaho , where the band was founded by brothers Micky and Gary Braun. Together with their other siblings, Cody and Willy, they were already active in the band "Muzzie Braun & the Little Braun Brothers" during their childhood. Cody and Willy Braun are now known with their Red Dirt band Reckless Kelly , which has already released ten albums since 1998 with growing success. Micky & the Motorcars, however, had their debut in 2003, although their first two albums, which they released without a record label, were not very successful.
It wasn't until four years later that the band found a label, and they first reached the genre charts in 2008 with the album Naive , which placed 43 on the country album charts. In 2009 she released a CD recorded live at Billy Bob's Texas , joining a number of greats like Willie Nelson and Pat Green . The band's most successful work to date is from 2011, the album Raise My Glass reached number 36 on the country charts and the Top 10 of the Heatseekers .
