Fall from Grace (band)

Upon their release of Rise From The Ashes, the band quickly gained steam by DIY (do it yourself) touring full time to start spreading the word of FFG.

From the punk rock ethics of doing it themselves, they created their own merch, street teams, ran their own shows, paid the local bands in each market, and made tons of friends along the way.

However, with the buzz that was surrounding FFG at the time, he also thought it would be a lot of fun for him and the guys to blow the doors off of the other bands competing, while making some new fans as well.

Roughly 1,500 fans showed up for this round from all over Washington State, fighting 70 mph winds in the process, to see FFG give a stellar performance!

Despite all Tryg's efforts, they still won and ended up going to Cleveland to be on Fuse TV's reality show Bodog Music's Battle of the Bands.

Those 10 bands included Boston's "Fear Nuttin' Band", Miami's "Big Bang Radio", Dallas's "Ashmore", Houston's "Subversa", Atlanta's "The Mood", Minneapolis's "Leroy Smokes", Los Angeles's "Blaxmyth", Phoenix's "Idle Red", San Francisco's "Strifer", and Philadelphia's "Burn Down All Stars".

Upon returning home, FFG self-released Covered in Scars before they let the ink dry from signing their newfound record deal with Bodog Music and did what they do best: went on their last DIY tour.

Upon returning from the 2009 tour, playing over 285 shows in 14 countries abroad, KennyB and Big Ken hung up their hats from FFG, and Tryg and Btown found themselves at the writing table, once again.
