Bear the Bronze is a 90s and 2000s alternative rock cover band based in Buffalo and Niagara Falls, New York. We bring the nostalgia of your youth back to life with high-energy performances across Western New York. From pop-punk anthems to guilty-pleasure hits, we deliver the songs that made your burned CDs skip and your friends sing at the top of their lungs.
Bear the Bronze is a live cover band that specializes in 90s and 2000s music. We play everything from Blink-182 and Fall Out Boy to Foo Fighters, Nirvana, and Green Day. Our mission is simple: to recreate the energy of the era and give every audience a night to remember.
Unlike most cover bands, we don’t just play songs — we create an experience. Our shows include original music videos projected behind us, nostalgic commercials from the 90s and 2000s, and authentic throwback outfits. Fans say our performances feel like a mix between a basement show and a stadium concert.
We play weddings, bars, private parties, and festivals throughout Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Batavia, Cheektowaga, Lockport, and across Western New York. Whether it’s a small-town bar or a full-scale event, we adapt our setlist to match the energy of the crowd.
The band officially formed in 2019, but our members have been playing music together since 2012. With over a decade of experience in Western New York’s music scene, we’ve built the chemistry that makes our shows authentic and unforgettable.
Our name comes from Brian’s goldendoodle, Bear, who has a bronze colored coat. The name started as an “epic-sounding” choice for our original band but stuck when we shifted to covers, a mix of personal meaning and playful nostalgia.
Booking is simple. Contact Brian at 716-940-3966 or reach out through our website and social media to book us for weddings, private events, bars, or festivals.
Bear the Bronze is more than a cover band. We are lifelong friends keeping the music of the 90s and 2000s alive. Every show is loud, nostalgic, and built to bring people together. If you want a band that guarantees a sing-along and a night full of memories, Bear the Bronze is your band.
