Kearns- Brendon Urie is known by the world mostly for his band “Panic at The Disco”. The top three songs that people recognize Panic by are

“I write sins not tragedies”, “This is gospel”, and “High Hopes”.

What people don’t know is that the singer songwriter has donated money to communities and has partnered with industries to give back to the people who have not just supported him from the beginning, but who also are in need.

In between his tour Brendon partnered with State Farm and went into different communities to talk to kids and even adults about their inspirations and was giving them courage and confidence to go for what they love and don’t hold back. While he was there talking with them, he was teaching them how to play instruments that they love or he was giving mini singing lessons, and he was also drawing with some talented people. The people he visited with were very talented and he didn’t want their talent to go to waste.

Along with his partnership with State Farm, Brendon has also donated millions to the LGBTQ community. Brendon loves his fans and being able to do the best he can to give back to them for keeping him inspired to do the things he does and what helps makes him be a better person every day. Brendon has a song “Girls, Girls, Boys” talking about being gay and he sings this song every concert with a rainbow flag and will even grab some flags from his fans up close and wear them during the song then give them back after. Brendon loves to show appreciation for everyone no matter who they choose to love or what race they are.

Many people have been touched by all the kind acts that Brendon has done. He is someone that anyone can relate to and feel comfortable with because he is as big of a dork as anyone else and isn’t afraid to show it. With Brendon being the person, he is.
