Band: Dropped at Birth
From: Lansing, Michigan
Their origin story:
"Dropped at Birth formed out of the ashes of prior projects in late 2022 by guitarist Bill Wessels, bassist Art Phillips, and drummer Calvin Norris Reed. The project was rounded out when vocalist Austin Velding joined the band, and put the words to the songs they had been writing."
Their sound in their own words:
"Blending smooth grooves with intense emotion for an inimitable sound that breathes new life into the hardcore genre."
Latest release info:
"'Waste' was the first song that the band wrote when we got together, and it feels like the perfect thesis for our sound. We also just dropped 'Bottom (.45)' as a single, and it will also appear our EP dropping this summer."
Future plans:
"We plan to keep playing shows in the area to grow our audience, as well as continuing to branch out and play shows to new faces."
What other bands from their region should we check out?
"Some of our local favorites in Lansing are Repeat, Orc, Promitto Lux, Novice, and Bad Footing."
