The Rising Fall is an original rock band from Chicago, Illinois. They will be One Third Of The Front Row Radio Presents Series in Franklin Tennessee on September 26th,  2026 and we can't be prouder or think of another band we would have kick off this series for us!

“Can’t keep us down” is the mantra that the original heavy rock group from the Chicago area, The Rising Fall lives by.

Formed in late 2022, The Rising Fall draws from old-school influences with the likes of Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Kate Bush, Iron Maiden and Megadeth, to post 90’s artists such as Deftones, Nine Inch Nails, Evanescence, and Alice in Chains. The Rising Fall writes hook-based melodies that include high powered female vocals, thought-provoking lyrics, driving guitar riffs and solos, and a progressive rhythm section that combines the “old with the new” to make it uniquely their own.
