Brendon Boyd Urie (born April 12, 1987) is an American singer, songwriter, and musician who is best known as the former lead vocalist and frontman of Panic! at the Disco, the only constant member throughout the band's 19-year run.[7]

Many of his songs have achieved commercial success, reaching high spots on Billboard charts and millions of sales. On January 24, 2023, Urie announced that he would be discontinuing Panic! at the Disco, since he and his wife are having a child.[8] He currently plays drums in a band led by Mike Viola.[9][10]

Early life

Urie was born in St. George, Utah, and his family moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, when he was two years old.[11] He is the fifth and youngest child born to Boyd and Grace Urie.[12] He is of about one quarter Polynesian descent from Hawaii, through his mother's side.[13] He was raised in an LDS family[12] but renounced his faith around 17 due to displeasure with the church and not believing in its ideology.[14][15][16]

Urie attended Palo Verde High School in Las Vegas,[17] where he met future Panic! bassist Brent Wilson in his guitar class. Wilson asked Urie to try out for a band he was in, since they needed a replacement guitarist.[18] Urie described himself as a "spaz in high school," and explained that one student would always bully him.[19] He worked at Tropical Smoothie Cafe in order to pay his band's rent for their practice space. At the cafe, Urie often sang for customers.[19] Urie graduated high school in 2005.[20]

"I would sing anything I was listening to at the time, but I was down to take requests. I remember singing some Scorpions songs. Some W.A.S.P. 80s anthems are usually good for tips. It was a huge range of stuff. Some people liked it, and some people didn't. I had to respect other people's wishes, but I had a couple people come in who would ask me to sing for a tip. That's always fun."
– Brendon Urie recalls his experience working at Tropical Smoothie Cafe (March 22, 2011)[19]

Career

Panic! at the Disco

Urie in 2006

Urie met Brent Wilson while taking guitar classes offered at their high school, and Wilson asked Urie to try out as lead guitarist for Panic! at the Disco, as they were looking for a replacement at the time. Originally, Ryan Ross was their lead singer. When Urie filled in for Ross during a band rehearsal, they were impressed with Urie's vocal abilities and he was chosen as their lead singer.[21] He officially joined the band in 2004.[18]

Since then, Panic! at the Disco has released seven studio albums with Urie as lead vocalist. A Fever You Can't Sweat Out was released in 2005 with the hit lead single "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" propelling it to 1.8 million sales. For their second album, Pretty. Odd. (2008), Urie also took lyrical responsibility and wrote two of the tracks on the record by himself: "I Have Friends in Holy Spaces" and "Folkin' Around".

Influences

Urie has cited Frank Sinatra, Queen, David Bowie, and Tom DeLonge as his biggest influences.[54][55] He also cited Taylor Swift as his influence as a songwriter.[56]

Personal life

Urie in 2013

Urie was diagnosed with ADHD at a young age and has since been prescribed medication for the condition. He says that he likes to be open about his mental health to his fans.[57][58] In a 2016 interview with Rolling Stone, Urie stated that he has synesthesia.[59]

Urie met his wife Sarah Orzechowski at one of his shows, albeit while she was in a relationship. Eight months later, Hayley Williams from Paramore brought Sarah to another of Urie's shows and reintroduced them, and they began dating in 2009.[60] The song "Sarah Smiles" from the album Vices & Virtues was inspired by Orzechowski.[61] After announcing their engagement in September 2011,[62] the two married on April 27, 2013.[63][64]

In 2013, Urie said that he had "experimented" with men but stated, "I guess if I had to classify myself, I'd say I'm straight."[65] In July 2018, Urie described himself as pansexual and stated, "I'm married to a woman and I'm very much in love with her but I'm not opposed to a man because to me, I like a person. If a person is great, then a person is great."[66] Urie has been recognized for his vocal & charitable support of the LGBT community.[67][68]

Urie joined Twitch on September 30, 2015 and regularly livestreamed thereafter. As of January 2023, his streams had accrued more than 4 million views.[69]

In February 2017, Urie moved from Los Angeles to an undisclosed location, stating that "visits and constant harassment" from fans at his house led him to feel unsafe.[70][71]

In August 2022, Urie got a tattoo depicting deceased Queen singer Freddie Mercury. He also has a tattoo depicting Frank Sinatra.[72][73]

On January 24, 2023, Urie revealed that he and his wife were expecting a child, and that he would be discontinuing Panic! at the Disco to focus on his family.[28][29][30][31] Their child was born in February 2023.[74]

Activism and philanthropy

Urie has been recognized for various philanthropic efforts, including his own Highest Hopes Foundation.[75] He has campaigned and donated to several organizations and causes, including Planned Parenthood,[76] the Human Rights Campaign,[77][78][79] SisterSong and Everytown for Gun Safety,[80] and several youth group organizations.[81][82][83]

Misconduct allegations

In 2020, Urie was accused by two anonymous Twitter users of having inappropriately touched, groped, or otherwise sexually harassed them when they were underage between the years 2009 and 2011.[88][89]

Later that summer, the Twitter hashtag #BrendonUrieSpeakUp trended as a result of those accusations and Panic! at the Disco's security manager Zack Hall being accused of sexual misconduct and physical abuse.[90] Urie was also criticized on Twitter for past remarks that have been perceived as racist[a] or transphobic,[b] including a joke about rape—which, made during a live performance over 10 years ago, initially received positive reception.[95][96][97][98] After several months, Urie appeared on a livestream to announce that Hall was no long working with the band, though he received criticism for stating he would remain close friends with him.[99] Urie apologized and announced that all of his crew members will receive anti-harassment training.[99] Urie stated "I can’t tell you how sorry I am to those that have been hurt and to those who have had to wait while I took the time I needed to listen and just learn" while also denouncing the allegations against himself as "entirely untrue".[99]
