Available in:
Awesome New Republic was founded by Michael John Hancock and Brian Robertson at the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami in 2004. The duo had previously performed together in a 5-piece band called Empirical Mile with other University of Miami music school students. In 2005, "MJ" and "B-Rob" combined two previously hand made studio albums Courageous and Witness Now the Birth of An Awesome New Republic to create their debut release "ANR So Far".
ANR has shared bills with a variety of acts, including The New Deal, Girl Talk, Animal Collective, Mike Gordon and the Benevento Russo Duo. Awesome New Republic played the 2008 Langerado Festival and was scheduled to play the 2009 festival before its subsequent cancellation. They have twice played both the Pop Montreal and CMJ music festivals.
In 2008, they were featured as a center piece in a New York Times article about the budding Miami music scene which hailed them as "one of the newest exponents of this growing tropical bohemia."
Awesome New Republic uses Twitter actively. In August 2011 the group collaborated with acclaimed performance artist Jillian Mayer for their "It's Around You" music video
