This is the story of The Violent.

As 2019 came to a close, rock band Red Sun Rising announced an indefinite hiatus as its members pursued other opportunities.\xa0

Soon after, the world as we knew it sunk into the deep hole of the pandemic. The time in lockdown helped to fuel the creative process for singer and songwriter Mike Protich, who was in search of a new creative release and to stretch his musical muscles.

He recruited two members from his former band \u2014 Patrick Gerasia on drums and David McGarry on guitar. The threesome began to work remotely during the initial lockdown and quarantine. They embarked on virtual sessions using home studio setups and collaborating with producer Albert DiFiore in Nashville Tennessee.\xa0

With roots in rock music, the three began to find fresh and invigorating ways to utilize their musicianship beyond the standard iteration of rock bands. They embraced experimentation by blending the familiar elements of rock music with a newfound appreciation for electronic and digital sounds. This process was elevated due to the fact that the members were unable to physically be in a room together to play.


Out of this process, The Violent was born.\xa0

It is truly a child of this chaotic pandemic \u2014 both sonically and lyrically.
