Honor Society

Honor Society was an American pop-rock band formed in New York City in 2006. The original lineup included Michael Bruno (vocals/guitar), Jason Rosen (guitar/keyboard), Andrew Lee Schmidt (bass), and Alexander Noyes (drums). The band gained significant attention in 2008 when they were discovered by the Jonas Brothers. This led to a signing with Jonas Records, an affiliate of Hollywood Records, and a prominent role as the opening act for the Jonas Brothers World Tour in 2009. That same year, they released their debut album, “Fashionably Late,” which achieved commercial success by reaching number 18 on the Billboard 200 chart. The single “Where Are You Now” from this album became particularly popular in the Philippines and was featured in the musical film “Bandslam.” Honor Society also contributed the song “You Really Got Me” to the soundtrack of “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel.”

Their career continued with an appearance on NBC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! and performances of the national anthem at the 2010 NFL Pro Bowl and several MLB games. In October 2011, the band released their second album, “A Tale of Risky Business: Part II,” which peaked at number 133 on the Billboard 200 and number 29 on the Independent Album charts. They followed this with their third EP, “Serendipity,” in 2012. Jason Rosen departed from the band in late 2012, citing creative differences, and the remaining members — Michael Bruno, Andrew Lee Schmidt, and Alexander Noyes — continued as a trio. In September 2013, after seven years, the band officially announced their breakup. They embarked on several headlining tours throughout their career, including the Fashionably Late Tour, Here Comes Trouble Tour, Wherever You Are Tour, Rock the Red Kettle Tour, and Serendipity: The Tour.
