Throw The Fight

Hailing from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Throw the Fight emerged as a five-piece rock band. Their early years saw the recording of several demos and a self-titled three-song EP featuring vocalist Brandon Kyllo. A pivotal moment arrived with the arrival of Paul Krueger, who took over vocal duties and spearheaded the creation of their next EP, The Fire Within. This four-track effort catapulted them into the national spotlight in 2006, earning them a spot on Alternative Press`s Top Ten Unsigned Bands list. This recognition led to a record deal with Cordless Recordings, a digital label under the Warner Music Group umbrella.

The band leveraged the newfound attention, embarking on a year-and-a-half tour in support of The Fire Within. This period culminated in a lineup shift, with James Clark replacing Paul Krueger on vocals. While already a solid act, the band felt Clark`s vocal style better captured their evolving sound. This change proved fortuitous, attracting the attention of Minnesota producer Matt Kirkwold.

Building on the moderate success of The Fire Within, Throw the Fight forged ahead, writing and recording material for their debut full-length album, In Pursuit of Tomorrow.
