Rise

Dance Gavin Dance is a post-hardcore band hailing from Sacramento, US. Formed in 2005, the band has undergone several lineup changes throughout their career. The current members include Jon Mess on unclean vocals, Matt Mingus on drums, Will Swan on lead guitar and rap/backing vocals, Tilian Pearson on vocals, and Andrew Wells on rhythm guitar/vocals.

With influences ranging from emo to funk to progressive rock, Dance Gavin Dance has carved out a unique sound that sets them apart from other bands in the genre. Their music is characterized by intricate instrumentals, catchy melodies, and emotionally charged lyrics.

Some of their notable former members include Alvaro Alcala and Sean O'Sullivan on rhythm guitar, Jason Ellis on bass guitar, Zachary Garren on rhythm guitar, Kurt Travis as lead vocalist, Eric Lodge and Jonny Craig as vocalists/bassists at different times. Sadly Tim Feerick passed away in 2022 after being with the band as a bassist for two separate periods.

Dance Gavin Dance is a name that instantly has people talking. One listen to any of their albums, and it’s no secret why. The band has found a way to combine elements of various genres in a way that wouldn’t seem likely for most, yet seems effortless for them. Their unique blend of rock, funk and experimental music makes their sound easily recognizable to many, and is what has won them loyal fans around the world. After eight full-lengths, an EP and a live album, Dance Gavin Dance are back at it with another killer record! Afterburner was recorded with producer Kris Crummett (Issues, Sleeping With Sirens) and co-produced by WZRD BLD (Lil Wayne, Motionless In White, Beartooth).

The new album includes 13 tracks that showcase the band on a new level, while still staying true to their roots. This album is some of the band’s best work to date and is sure to please their existing, die-hard fans, while also intriguing new listeners.
