Brendon Boyd Urie, the lead singer of Panic At The Disco, was born April 12, 1987 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Urie, the youngest of five, went to Palo Verde High School, where he met ex-Panic bassist Brent Wilson in his guitar class. Wilson asked Brendon to try out for a band he was in, since they needed a replacement guitarist. Brendon did and started as the guitarist, but after hearing his amazing vocals, the band unanimously named as the singer. During his senior year, Brendon put a lot into the band, and because of this, he almost didn't graduate. After his graduation, Brendon's parents highly encouraged him to attend college, but he chose to stick to his interests in music. Because of this, his parents kicked him out of their house, and Urie was forced to take up a job at Smoothie Hut to pay rent for his one room apartment and the band's practice space. After seeing him perform, his parents finally supported him, and our now huge supporters of his successful career. Since joining the hit band, Brendon has been able to branch himself out and make a name for himself, which will go on throughout the years.
