Roper is a Christian Pop-Punk band formed in Denver, Colorado. The band consists of Reese Roper (former lead singer of Five Iron Frenzy) in lead vocals, Jonathan Byrnside in lead guitar, Jonathan Till in bass, Stephen Till in rhythm guitar and Nick White in drums. In early summer, 2005, Stephen Till left the band, and was replaced by Matt Emmett.

Roper's first album, Brace Yourself for the Mediocre, was produced before the band was officially together. All songs on the album with the exception of "Day of Pigs" and "You're Still The One" were written by Reese Roper, Masaki Liu, and Ethan Luck. Because of the incomplete state of the band at the time



of the album's release, the only current member appearing on the CD is Reese Roper. As a result, the album features many additional musicians such as Frank Lenz (drums), Elijah Thomson (bass), Phil Bennett (organ), Bob Schiveley (guitar), Masaki Liu (guitar), Jason White (additional drums), Ethan Luck (guitar), and many additional vocalists.
