Etched in Embers

Missouri rockers Etched in Embers formed in January 2020 and refused to let a global pandemic slow them down. Working remotely with producer Chris Dawson (SAUL, Any Given Sin, Shallowside), they released their debut single "Sail the Silence," an anthem about tuning out the noise and division of online life. They followed it with "Bring Me Back" in 2021, then "Fear" and their heaviest track yet, "Your Crimes," in 2022.

In December 2023, the band released their 12-song debut album Obsolete, finished with producer Kile Odell (Motionless in White, Bad Wolves). Its single "Happy Song" climbed to #7 on the SMR chart, and the album has passed 1.5 million streams. In 2024 drummer Josh Newlon joined the band, and they covered more than 4,000 miles on their first headlining tour.

Along the way, Etched in Embers has shared stages with Skillet, Sevendust, Theory of a Deadman, Badflower, 10 Years, Adelita's Way, and Icon for Hire. New singles "Good Friends" and "Gemini" point toward a heavier sound on their next album.
