REAL ROCK & ROLL REQUIRES TALENT, YOUTHFUL ENERGY, AND THE GROUP COHESION THAT ONLY THE NIGHTLY GRIND OF TOURING AND LIVE PERFORMANCE CAN PRODUCE! VANCOUVER'S BEYOND THE FALL IS A REAL ROCK AND ROLL BAND, FORMED IN 2004 AND HAS SINCE CARVED OUT A VERY FAITHFUL FOLLOWING!
Formed in 2004, Beyond the Fall released their indie debut Bright Idea in 2006, following it up with a blitzkrieg of incendiary live shows that solidified their ever-growing fan base in North America. Plum spots at events such as VirginFest, Foxfest, New Music West, the Molson Canadian House Party, the Coors Lite Trauma Tour and Toronto’s North by Northeast proved key to exposing the band to potential fans, as well as media and industry reps. Meanwhile, opening slots for established acts including My Chemical Romance, the Killers, Sum 41, and Billy Talent likewise garnered Beyond the Fall much-deserved attention.
“I love touring,” says Wilkinson. “You can play all you want to your 30 friends in your hometown, but it’s touring that makes you better as a band it gives you the attitude and the confidence.”
Attracting the attention of Cincinnati, Ohio-based EO Music, Beyond the Fall entered the studio with producer Jeff Dawson (the man behind State of Shock, as well as Daniel Powter’s No. 1 hit, “Bad Day”) and engineer Mike Fraser (who has worked with AC/DC, Aerosmith, Metallica and Motley Crue, among others). “They understood my vision and we wanted to work together,” says Wilkinson.
Ditto for Beyond the Fall’s new lineup: guitarists Phil Bell and Andrew Creed, bassist Kol Incognito and drummer Seamus O’Neill. “When these guys joined,” says Wilkinson, “I already had the image set. I knew how I wanted us to sound, how I wanted us to look and how I wanted us to be. They came onboard loving the fact that there was a specific goal in mind, and it has worked out great.”
Indeed, the single “Day in the Death Of” has already bent ears at rock and alternative radio. “The course of the band has changed considerably thanks to that one song,” says Wilkinson. “I want the world to hear that song.”
