blessthefall kicks off U.S. tour
with As I Lay Dying

blessthefall is excited to kick off their first set of dates with As I Lay Dying in Tuscon, AZ today!

The tour is in support of current album Witness, and precedes a summer on the Cool Tour with As I Lay Dying, Underoath, Between The Buried And Me, The Acacia Strain, Architects, Cancer Bats and War Of Ages. The band then heads to Europe with August Burns Red in September.

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.
