Lacey Sturm rose to fame in the early 2000's with the hard rock band, Flyleaf. Her distinctive voice and shiver-inducing screams helped propel Flyleaf to multi-platinum success with hard rock hits "I'm So Sick" and "All Around Me." With the band, she released three albums and an EP before amicably parting ways in 2012 to focus on her family. Re-emerging as a solo artist, she contributed a number of guest appearances including the Underworld Soundtrack's "Heavy Prey", Skillet's "Breaking Free" and Breaking Benjamin's "Dear Agony." In 2014, she released her first book, a memoir titled The Reason: How I Discovered a Life Worth Living (Baker Books) A year after her book debuted, Sturm returned to her hard rock roots, recording her debut LP, Life Screams, with husband/guitarist Josh Sturm, Skillet's Korey Cooper, and ex-Evanescence member David Hodges. Her first single "Impossible" combined her unmistakable voice with chugging blasts of guitar that will be familiar to her Flyleaf fan base. "Life Screams" was released in February of 2016 and Lacey Sturm was recognized by Billboard as the "first solo woman to top hard rock album charts."

A throwback to the emotional alt-metal of bands like Deftones, Glassjaw, and Far, Greenville, South Carolina’s Islander merch driving metal with soaring emo to create their ripping sound. Made up of singer Mickey Carvajal, guitarist Andrew Murphy, bassist Chris Doot and drummer Eric Fraizer, the band was founded in 2011. In 2013, Islander were signed to Victory Records, where they released their debut EP, Pains., later that year. Continuing to build hype, Islander went into the studio with Alkaline Trio and Silverstein producer Cameron Webb to record their full-length debut Violence and Destruction. The album arrived in 2014, with the band setting out on the 2014 Mayhem Festival to support it. Early 2016 saw the release of a new single, “Darkness,” in anticipation of the band’s sophomore studio long-player, Power Under Control, which dropped later that August.

ntoxicating modern rock band Young Other have spent the last six years creating explosive tracks that are both firmly emotive and aggressively catchy. As they prepare to release their next body of work, Young Other is ready to challenge their well-defined artistry as they craft expertly lyrical stories through their new music. The edgy, rock-inspired sounds the band showcases with songs like “Cabin Fever” and “Love Blind” perfectly capture the band’s volatile energy that hooks fans from the very first verse. After winning a competition presented by Danny Wimmer Presents, Young Other clinched their spot on the main stage at Welcome To Rockville 2022 in Daytona, FL, along with the opening slot on The Dead Masquerade Tour II with Escape the Fate and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus throughout the East Coast and Pennsylvania. “With the next chapter of our journey, we’re excited to build upon our core upbeat, melodic sound. Having the freedom to keep testing ourselves, evolving our music, and stepping out of our comfort zone is an incredible feeling. We want to push our boundaries and create something much larger than a band.”
