Warren Defever (born 1969) is a musician from Livonia, Michigan. He is most known for his project His Name Is Alive, though he is active in numerous other circles.
Defever began recording while still in high school, and toured as the bassist of psychobilly band Elvis Hitler. He attended Eastern Michigan University for one year, but dropped out to concentrate on music. His classmate Karin Oliver provided vocals for His Name Is Alive until 1998.
For many years Defever recorded in the basement of parents' house, which he later bought from them. There he produced a number of bands, including Godzuki and Tarnation. In 2003 Defever opened his own recording studio, Brown Rice, in the Detroit area, where he works as a producer.
Along with housemate Davin Brainard, Defever runs a home record label, timeSTEREO.
Defever is infamous for manipulating unsuspecting interviewers with clever fabrications.
