Everything Falls CD/Video Release + TheRuinCity + Laws of Average + Matt Hutchison

Embarking on a musical career is no simple endeavor, and Tennessee native Aaron Linkous is no stranger to the adversities of the music business. Prior to his arrival in the Mid-Atlantic region, the Everything Falls frontman completed his degree in Recording Industry and learned the ropes at two fast-paced Nashville recording studios. It was there in Music City, that he honed his skills as a singer/songwriter.In 2010, Linkous relocated to the DC-MD-VA area where he soon met current bassist, Mike Smith. Together, Smith and Linkous began a diligent search for additional musicians. After multiple rounds of auditions in 2011, the duo gladly welcomed Jeff Sauber on drums and Gabe Goodin on lead guitar. Everything Falls was finally formed. Influenced by (1) the intricate, powerful riffs of such bands as Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle, Three Days Grace and Metallica, and (2) the lyrical sentiments of bands like 3 Doors Down and Theory of a Deadman, Everything Falls delivers a hard-hitting combination of dynamic melodies and gripping lyrics. Deemed "polished" and "radio-friendly" by Northern Virginia Magazine, Everything Falls is poised to become a front-runner in the regional rock music scene.

LAWS OF AVERAGE
The story began when Brett and Johnson met each other in high school. They started collaborating musically and, after a brief separation during college, Jonson and Brett joined back up and formed "Ink 2 Blood." The group performed locally in Charleston until 2005 when Brett needed to relocate to Virginia for a job opportunity. After that the band members lost touch with one another. As fate would have it however, in 2009 Johnson moved to the same city Brett was living in. They started performing live acoustic sets of "Ink 2 Blood" songs on the DC rock scene and worked feverishly on new material. With their creative passion rekindled, they called in a favor from their old friend Josh to play bass and connected with a new drummer Michael to form Laws of Average (LOA)...
