Worcester-based My Silent Bravery (formerly Matt Shwachman Band) has hit its stride with a brand new (and technically debut) album, Are You Prepared?, due March 23.  The release comes on the heels of MSB’s (as the Matt Shwachman Band) recent, successful placements on the WB’s “One Tree Hill” and MTV’s “Real World Cancun” and “Real World D.C.”  These placements, along with a rigorous show schedule and airplay at over 200 college radio stations, have helped the band steadily and organically grow a dedicated fan base.  Musically, MSB draws comparisons from Maroon 5 and One Republic to John Mayer, Jason Mraz, Tom Petty and Five for Fighting.  With the release of Are You Prepared?, My Silent Bravery will add comparisons to Warner Brother’s powerhouse act Mute Math.
