Heart Attack Man released a demo in 2013 on August 19; originally a studio project that Egan never intended to play live shows with.

After local buzz developed around the project, live lineups of the band formed, with Adam Paduch being the original drummer.

During this time, the band made their first ventures into regional touring after solidifying themselves as a Cleveland scene favorite; breaking to a wider Northeastern U.S. and Midwest audience, as well as making their first visits across the Canadian border.

The band was beginning to make very formative friendships in the scene, as well as starting to garner a reputation for themselves; cutting their teeth experiencing the full gamut of early touring; playing house shows, DIY venues, and small clubs.

[9] On April 19, 2019, Heart Attack Man released their sophomore album, “Fake Blood,” again through Triple Crown Records.

This was their first full length album to not be released with Triple Crown Records; as the band fulfilled their contract and wanted to continue forward independently.
