Timeline
Stephen Pate Bray (born December 23, 1956) is an American songwriter, drummer, and record producer.
Bray dated Madonna before her fame when she was attending the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor for dance in 1976.
He continued his education at Berklee College of Music in Boston in 1978.
He moved to New York after receiving a call from Madonna in November 1980; at that time she was a member of the band Breakfast Club in Queens.
Madonna wanted to form a new band and invited Bray to play the drums.
They formed the band Emmy and the Emmys.
They also rekindled their romance and together they moved into The Music Building in Manhattan for a while.
Together, they wrote and produced some of the biggest hit songs of the 1980s, including several of Madonna's biggest hits.
The songs Bray and Madonna composed often followed a distinctive structure, many of which repeat the song's second verse and bridge before fading out with the chorus.
Madonna obtained a recording contract with Gotham Management, managed by Camille Barbone in 1981.
Barbone put together a new band with session musicians although Madonna wanted Bray as her drummer.
Barbone knew they had been romantically involved and didn't want love affairs among band members.
The music she was producing with them was more rock oriented but Madonna had her eyes set on dance music.
She and Stephen Bray continued working on a parallel project, more club oriented.
After being signed to Sire Records in 1982, Madonna opted not to work with Bray for her debut album, but they continued collaborating with her second album Like a Virgin (1984).
The band's eponymous first album was released in early 1987, preceded by the Top 10 hit "Right on Track".
Bray co-wrote most of the albums' songs with bandmate Dan Gilroy, and Bray produced several songs.
The band's second album was not released, and Breakfast Club broke up shortly afterward.
Their partnership concluded with their work on Madonna's album Like a Prayer (1989).
Following Madonna's rise to stardom, Bray rejoined Breakfast Club, and the quartet signed first with ZE Records and later with MCA.
Bray made his Broadway debut in 2005 as composer and lyricist for the Broadway version of Alice Walker's book The Color Purple.
He was nominated for a Tony Award for his work on the show.
Bray lives in Studio City, California with his wife, movie producer Stephanie Allain, who produced Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan.
He is best known for his collaborations with Madonna, being a member of the band Breakfast Club, and for winning the 2017 Grammy Award for the Best Musical Theater Album of the Tony Award-winning revival of The Color Purple.
Bray owns and operates Saturn Sound recording studios and the Soultone Records label.
Bray began studying music through private instruction in Detroit, attended Washtenaw Community College in Ann Arbor.
