HeartSupport – Mind Your Mental Health on Valentine’s Day

Johnnie Crow — Wed, 15 Feb 2023 04:55:19 +0000

Late One Night, Jake Luhrs, lead vocalist for hard rock band August Burns Red, Sat Outside The Chicago House Of Blues…

Stories of addiction, depression, self-harm, heartache, war, fear, and hopelessness echoed in his mind.

Every night, a fan would share a different story.

Although Jake was the well-recognized frontman of the world-famous metal band, August Burns Red, he was at a loss for how to help.

He wasn’t a mental health specialist and he screamed into a mic for a living. Not exactly the picture of expertise his fans needed.

Deep in thought and prayer, all Jake knew was…

Something Had To Change.

HeartSupport is more than a charity, it is a community of people who simply want to help each other. It is a group of people who accept and support each other as they are. They connect online and in-person to encourage and build relationships.

It’s easy to get started. Just visit https://www.heartsupport.com/

This weekend, the very first HeartSupport Fest will take place in Orlando, Florida. August Burns Red and some of their musical friends will take over the Central Florida Fairgrounds on February 18 & 19, 2023. Rise Against and Parkway Drive will headline an absolutely blockbuster, can’t miss lineup that includes The Ghost Inside, Dance Gavin Dance, Spirit Box, August Burns Red, Underoath, Four Year Strong, Senses Fail, Currents, Silverstein, Memphis May Fire, The Devil Wears Prada, Hawthorne Heights, Comeback Kid, The Word Alive, Bleed From Within, Harms Way, ’68, He Is Legend, Bloodlines, Silent Planet, and Prison.

ABR have also announced its 20 Year Anniversary Tour, during which they will play material off all nine of their albums as they hit North America.

“Where does the time go?,” says Brubaker. “I can remember playing 250 shows a year and touring in our van like it was yesterday. We are so grateful to have had the support of our fans year in and year out for two decades. We thank you, and cannot wait to celebrate with you!”

The first leg of the tour kicks off on February 15 in Silver Spring, MD and runs through March 14 in Charlotte, NC. The second leg launches on April 13 in Philadelphia, PA and wraps on May 12 in Quebec in Canada. The tour marks the first time the band has played Canada since 2019.

ABOUT AUGUST BURNS RED:
August Burns Red is likely the only metal act ever described as “thrillingly empathetic” (Kerrang!). It’s a testament to the ferocious band’s ability to recognize and connect with the mixture of brokenness and hope found in their audience and within themselves. A hard-working collective with a shockingly stable lineup for the vast majority of their career, August Burns Red pour every ounce of themselves into their music. Atmospheric, riff-laden, aggressive bursts of controlled chaos, filled with shifting time signatures and tempos, deliver confessional, self-reflective, and authentic emotion.

Tour stops with Lamb of God, Killswitch Engage, Parkway Drive, and Bring Me the Horizon; several major international hard rock festivals (Rock Am Ring, Download, and Aftershock, to name a few); and the Vans Warped Tour are among the destinations around the world to witness ABR’s live prowess. Massive headlining treks celebrating 10-year anniversaries for Constellations and Leveler demonstrated the enduring relevance of the band’s catalog, nearly 20 years into ABR’s storied career. 2020’s Guardians debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hard Music, Rock Albums, and Vinyl Albums charts.

Revolver, who put the band on their cover the same year, observed August Burns Red “embrace the pain so well.” It’s a truth never more evident than on Death Below, their stunning ninth studio album. Recorded with longtime producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland, Death Below encompasses all of the pissed-off strength of the band’s past without sacrificing an ounce of catchy, melodic might. Death Below boasts guest appearances from ABR allies Jesse Leach (Killswitch Engage), Spencer Chamberlain (Underoath), Jason Richardson (All That Remains), and JT Cavey (ERRA). “It’s getting difficult for the members of August Burns Red to keep one-upping themselves,” marveled Billboard shortly before Guardians arrived. With Death Below, they emerge victorious again.
