Phoenix, AZ’s blessthefall kicks off The Bangover Tour today, heading across the U.S. and Canada as headliner for the next two weeks. The band follows the dates with a U.S. tour with As I Lay Dying.

BLESSTHEFALL – Beau Bokan (lead vocals), Eric Lambert (guitar/vocals), Mike Frisby (guitar), Jared Warth (bass), Matt Traynor (drums) – stormed to the forefront of the new evolution of the post-hardcore/metalcore genre with the release of critically-acclaimed second album Witness in October 2009. Produced by Michael “Elvis” Baskette (Incubus, Escape The Fate, Story Of The Year), the album debuted in the Billboard Top 200 at #56 and the Independent Chart at #6. The band has steadily gained a legion of fans around the world, having toured with the likes of Escape The Fate, From First To Last, Protest The Hero, All That Remains, Silverstein and Finch.
