Bastion Rose's story is nothing short of extraordinary, a testament to the resilience and creative fire that fuels their music. In just two years, frontman Austin Frink has transformed from a musician battling the uncertainty of ever regaining his singing voice after a life-altering surgery into the driving force behind Bastion Rose. The band's name itself embodies the transient nature of existence and the significance of cherishing every moment. Their debut EP, "Fade To Blue," is a testament to their unwavering spirit and artistic passion.

Produced by the three-time Grammy award-winning maestro, David Bottrill (known for his work with Tool, Rush, Godsmack, Mastodon, Muse, Coheed and Cambria) and mastered by the skilled engineer Maor Appelbaum (Faith No More, Dream Theater, Meat Loaf, Eric Gales), "Fade To Blue" stands as an unfiltered outpouring of raw emotion and unapologetic rock energy. It artfully blends ethereal soundscapes with powerful guitar riffs, all anchored by Bastion Rose's unique fusion of soulful vocals, intricate guitar craftsmanship, and a dynamic rhythm section. Their ensemble, featuring John Donlon on drums, Steve Pierce on bass guitar, Barrett Abraham on keyboards, and Austin Mudd on guitar, brings together a symphony of talents that define Bastion Rose's electrifying sound.

Inspired by a diverse range of musical legends, from timeless classics like Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, and Lynyrd Skynyrd to contemporary giants like Tool and Foo Fighters, Bastion Rose crafts anthems that resonate with rock enthusiasts worldwide.

The EP's lead single, "Coming For You," debuted in May 2023 as a resounding statement of intent. This electrifying track premiered on all major streaming platforms and quickly amassed over 25,000 streams on Spotify alone. With its irresistible hooks, soaring guitar solos, and impassioned vocals, the song firmly established Bastion Rose as a formidable presence in modern rock. It led to an international management partnership with Deadfall Artist Management, a team with decades of experience working with renowned acts like Nickelback, Judas Priest, Disturbed, Scorpions, and many others.

This partnership with Deadfall Artist Management adds a new dimension to Bastion Rose's journey, promising a future filled with incredible possibilities. Bastion Rose's journey continued to unfold with the release of their second single, "Halo Devil." September 2023 marked a pivotal moment as the band signed with Epictronic Records, following their international management deal with Deadfall Artist Management. Their forthcoming EP, "Fade To Blue," will proudly bear the Epictronic Records insignia, underscoring the label's commitment to nurturing exceptional talent.
