Blessthefall

Fearless Friends Tour- Blessthefall- The Door- Dallas, TX

     Blessthefall is a post-hardcore band who has currently released six singles, Three EPs, and Three full length albums from 2005-2011. Their current album, "Awakening" peaked on the US Hard Rock chart at the number three position. It was released on October 4, 2011 on the Fearless Records label. The band is comprised of six talented musicians who appeal to their audience and rock the stage.

     Beau Bokan singing lead vocals mixes screamo with a sympathetic yet smooth range of hard rock singing. Although his voice is appealing to his fans and his audience, he is definitely appealing to the ladies. Ladies, hold tight because this smooth singing hearth throb is off the market and ready to settle in with his beautiful Fiance sometime in May of 2012.

     On Rhythm guitar is Elliot Gruenberg. Elliot is the newest member of the band but has caught the attention of many fans who simply play the guitar. I know his personal fan base in Texas itself is rapidly growing as Blessthefall becomes more of a hit sensation and the word spreads of this fast paced, on key guitarist. Good job Elliot for building a personal fan base aside from Blessthefall.

     In most modern bands there can't be a band without backing vocals and a lead guitarist. Eric Lambert is Blessthefall's lead guitarist who brings a hardcore beat, fast riffs, and music that moves not only the crowd, but the soul as well. As the backing vocals of the band his voice blends well with Beau Bokan's to create the awe-inspring music produced in studio and live in concert.

     Matt Traynor is the drummer and has a particular style he uses to capture the fans attention. I've heard rumors that his kit is one of a kind which would explain how he brings his style and amazing abilities into this bands already amazing music. You want bass drops, he definitely can deliver. Blessthefall uses more bass drops than just about any of your modern day bands.

     Jared Warth is Blessthefall's Bass guitarist and he also delivers the unclean vocals that make this bands music more diversified than your modern day post-hardcore bands. Warth's adroit ability to blend bass with the rhythm and lead guitars supersedes that of most bands.


     If you haven't caught this band live in concert you are missing one hell of a show. The band is interactive with their fans and the audience creating a pleasant experience and a motivational environment. If you haven't heard of the "sprinkler of death" it's definitely an experience you don't want to miss. Beau Bokan created this little mosh pit odyssey during the "Fearless Friends Tour". Mosh pits are hot, water cools you down... just jump up and down and spin those open bottles of water around! Just hope that it's a continuing tradition since it seems to be one of Blessthefall's legendary new fads.

     If your looking for a live show that moves your heart, mind, soul, and your body. I definitely would suggest seeing this band and experiencing the rush for yourself. One of the best performances I've ever been to.

     If I had one thing to say to the band it would be thank you for giving me, a small time girl in Dallas, Texas the opportunity to experience one of the most breath taking motivational concerts that I have ever attended. I've been to hundreds of concerts and I highly recommend the Blessthefall experience.
