Band Line Up 2013

Micky and Sean have been playing music together for roughly 8 years after meeting in academy, starting from a rap-metal style like RATM and then focusing towards the heavier styles. After academy Sean met Moley in Culinary college in Inverness and discovered each other were into the same music, and Sean was added into Moley's already formed band. With the addition of Micky a few years later Fallen Riot really started to form, and play the music we really wanted to. After a few changes with guitarists we finally stumbled upon Al and got stronger once more with the technicality of his playing, and the pure passion of our live shows truely began.

After another year of playing shows we decided as a band to part ways with our lead vocalist due to other commitments.

But it's now that we feel strongest with the addition of sexy harmonies and more varied screaming. And we are ready to show the world the true passion and commitment of our music, playing exciting live shows with our usual stage tomfoolery and antics.

Well let's just say we never thought we would get through even the first heat of the Battle for Bloodstock, and then to be accepted as a guest band to play the festival was a massive shock. We as a band couldn't have hoped to play a better festival, especially the biggest and best UK metal festival. When our name got read out we couldn't actually believe we had won, we all looked at each other confused to be honest. We are so overjoyed to be playing Bloodstock Festival and hope we can do the festival proud, bringing UK metal to the forefront of the music industry, where it belongs.
