Born Animal is putting the rock back in indie-rock. During that time, the band transitioned to a regional act, touring the southern U.S. The vocals are luscious.
Created by Ryan Stowe, and Stephen Luther in 2015, the then-college-students hit their stride immediately, wowing audiences with electric live shows and songs that won’t get out of your head. Taking influence from every decade of music, Born Animal blends riff-based rock with powerhouse vocals and rebellious lyricism. The next year of writing and rehearsing culminated in Celebration Revolution, s
elf-released on Dec. 1st 2017. The EP was featured on Lightning 100, Pancakes & Whiskey (NYC), The Deli (Nashville) and charted at #140 on the NACC Charts. and appearing at four SXSW 2018 shows. Not forgetting love for their home city of Nashville, Born Animal also played Vanderbilt’s Rites of Spring 2018 and was a finalist in Lightning 100’s Music City Mayhem. The band also had a lineup change, with Adam Uttz taking over on drums. Born Animal has finished their third EP Even If It Breaks for a spring 2019 release. The first single, also titled ‘Even If It Breaks’ is due out April 5th. With the help of producer Dean Alexander, the newest album sounds like the band is rocking right in front of you. It’s Born Animal’s strongest effort yet, and it’s got it all – anthems, guitar solos, screams, sing-alongs, and headbangers. The guitars are raw and gritty. And the drums are just plain huge. If you can’t wait for spring 2019, catch the new material at any live Born Animal show. You won’t regret it.
