The Brave Collide is a Nashville-based indie folk/pop duo featuring acclaimed Irish singer-songwriters and music producers Chloë Agnew and Brian McGrane. Originally uniting after a viral cover of Coldplay’s “Everglow” captured international attention, their natural chemistry quickly evolved into a dedicated original project. Combining rich dual-lead vocals with acoustic guitar and piano, their signature sound blends the organic intimacy of Oh Wonder with the polished, contemporary harmonies of Lady A.

As headlining recording and touring artists, their original catalog includes breakout singles like "Somebody Just Like You", "The First Time", and "FIRE"—which earned a feature film sync placement in the 2024 Irish release Kathleen Is Here.

Global Touring & Background Having built a loyal international following, Chloë and Brian regularly tour as a duo across the United States, Europe, and Ireland, bringing their dynamic live set to headline venues and festivals. Both artists also bring remarkable individual histories to the stage:

• Chloë Agnew: Gained global fame as an original lead vocalist for the multi-platinum sensation Celtic Woman, touring world-renowned arenas for over a decade, performing for three U.S. Presidents (Clinton, Bush, Obama), and collaborating with world-class orchestras.

• Brian McGrane: An accomplished multi-instrumentalist and sought-after music producer who toured internationally as a pianist and vocalist for Celtic Woman before relocating to Nashville, where his production work has amassed millions of streams worldwide.
