Fastfall is Andrew John (leflt), Eli Maloney, Johnny Snyder, Joe McLaughlin, and Casey Valencic

Saturday, Apr. 16

One of Erie's newest post-hardcore bands on the scene is set to release their self-produced debut EP Tell the World Your Secrets April 22nd on all major platforms. Fastfall's sound is unique, while somehow simultaneously nostalgic. The high energy quintet manages to blend together a mix of driving guitar melodies, piercing vocals, and an upbeat tempo for a non-stop ride from start to finish. 

Drawing influence from several mid-2000s giants, like Underoath, A Day To Remember, and Alexisonfire, Fastfall is ready to Tell the World they are here with a fresh and modern sound in the Erie music scene. 

The band (now a five-piece) features Andrew John on guitar and clean vocals, Casey Valencic on guitar, Eli Maloney on drums, Joe McLaughlin on bass, and Johnny Snyder on lead vocals.

Philly on the Rocks is hosting the first live look at this much-awaited EP debut on Saturday, April 16. Alongside Fastfall, this night will be packed with local alternative bands carefully curated by Erie's own Dread Metal Promotions. Set to feature Drenaline (Cleveland, OH), LUCiD (Edinboro, PA), and Wasted Info (Erie, PA), You can expect to see tight, energetic and unique performances throughout the evening.

Doors at 7 p.m., Show at 8:30 p.m. // Philly on the Rocks, 401 W. 18th St. // $5 presale, $8 day of show // 21+ // For tickets and more info, go to brownpapertickets.com/event/5401610
