RISE

About Me


Fusing heavy riffs, gripping dynamics and manic vocal melodies which flip from pitch perfect falsetto to primal scream in a heartbeat, Melbourne based five-piece TREAD have forged themselves a signature sound nothing short of colossal in magnitude.
Tim Burns (Rhythm), Cam Wilkins (Bass) and Adam Swoboda (Drums) form Tread’s commanding and rhythm section, setting the stage for frontman Cail Baroni’s majestic vocals to resonate through rhythmic hooks and harmonies, while Steve Christo (Lead) weaves solos exuding not only speed, but thoughtful melody and precision.
From the ground up Tread is a real band - no gimmicks. It only takes a short listen to realize Cail’s vocals carry the same sheer honesty and purity his lyrics convey; only to be juxtaposed tonally by the brutality of his scream.
This year TREAD have finished recording their debut album ‘Rise from Silence’ at Lighthill Sound Studios with producer Ricki Rae.
