Brother Clyde is really Billy Ray Cyrus in hard-rocking grunge clothing. The band was initially conceived in 2009 when Jeffrey Steele, Phil Vassar, and John Waite asked Cyrus to join them in a supergroup of sorts, but by the time the group’s debut album, the self-titled Brother Clyde, appeared on Fontana Records in 2010, the band consisted of Cyrus, ex-Hole/Eagles of Death Metal drummer Samantha Maloney, former Snot guitarist Jamie Miller, guitarist Dan Knight, and bassist Dave Henning, with Steele, Vassar, and Waite nowhere in sight. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
