Bio
Following the path set by legends such as Godsmack, Puddle of Mudd, Hinder, & Shinedown to name a few, former Alabama turned Atlanta rockers BrokenRail set out to make their own mark in modern music with their own blend of post-grunge rock. The band consists of four members: Blake Clawson (vocals) James Mims (guitar) Jason Black (bass) and Adam Mcwhorter (drums). Working effortlessly to get their music heard worldwide, BrokenRail’s music has been featured on ESPN, won two #1 chart positions in two different rock charts on the MTV powered OurStage.com in 2011, and remains a top 10 All Time band on RoadRunner Records unsigned rock charts, SignMeTo. As Blake puts it, “Great rock comes from strong emotion. People can tell when it’s real, something you’ve actually been through yourself. If you want lies, you won’t find them here.” After a successful debut release “Welcome To The Escape” in 2010 featuring Alabama producer Ben Trexel and Shinedown/Crossfade producer Rick Beato, BrokenRail toured heavily across the Southern regions as they prepared for their next CD. The band released their follow-up sophomore EP “Never The Same”, engineered and produced by Framing Hanley producer Brett Hestla in December 2011.
BrokenRail is currently finalizing plans for their debut full-length major album with Multi-Platinum producer Elvis Baskette (AlterBridge, Falling In Reverse, Chevelle, Puddle of Mudd) as well as gearing up and booking for their upcoming US tour.
