Born and raised in the remote Whitecloud Mountains of central Idaho, brothers Gary and Micky Braun grew up singing and playing whatever instrument they could get their hands on. Their father, Muzzie Braun, was a full time musician.

After high school, and nine years playing with his father, Micky moved to Phoenix, AZ. Mark McCoy from Stanley, Idaho made the venture south as well. Six months later, Gary joined the mix and the three of them began working on what would become the existing band. Mark played the bass guitar while Micky took the role of songwriter/lead singer/rhythm guitarist/front man. Gary added his vocal harmonies, guitar, mandolin and harmonica to round out their sound.

In January of 2002 The Motorcars moved to Austin, Texas.
