Seasons After is an American heavy metal band from Wichita, Kansas formed in late 2006. Their debut album Through Tomorrow was released on August 26, 2008 and then re-released with differently mixed tracks (especially drums) on March 23, 2010.[1][2]
History
Based in the Air Capital Wichita, Kansas, Seasons After is a five piece Rock/Metal band that was formed in late 2006. Composed of James Beattie (guitar), Michael Byers (bass), Chris Dawson (guitar), Tim Rails (drums), and Chris Shlichting (lead singer).[3] They signed with ILG/Warner Music Group in 2009 and gained popularity with their cover version of Gerard McMann's "Cry Little Sister", the theme song from the 1987 cult classic film The Lost Boys.[4] The song, the second single off their debut album Through Tomorrow, reached No. 44 on Billboard's Rock Songs chart in May 2010.[5] Their sound, blending guitar and vocal harmonies, has been classified by some as "Nu-Metal" with old school roots. Seasons After readily agrees with this, claiming influences such as "Iron Maiden", "Tesla", "Faith No More", and "Sevendust" to name a few.
In just two years, Seasons After has performed on The Vans "Warped Tour" twice and "Taste of Chaos" tour. They have toured extensively throughout the Midwest region promoting their full length debut album, Through Tomorrow, that has sold units worldwide. As of 2011 the band has not released music due to a despute with their Record Label.
