Through A Glass

These boys have been through a lot, coming out victorious. The catchy melodious hooks, straight edged haircuts, and personal tragedy put Through A Glass out on top. Their new album name, Tragedy vs. Comedy, had become an ironic truth for the band. Beginning as a six-piece band in 2005, Through A Glass had a humble beginning, playing at local schools, clubs, and churches.

The band was at an up and coming status very soon after they formed. The band was in the midst of recording their debut album in the summer of 2006 when singer/keyboard player, Nathan Johnson, 16 years of age, was killed in a car accident. This tragedy sparked a tribute album titled "Called Out: A Tribute" in November of 2006. The band took time to heal after this ordeal, doors opening around them.

Front man Jeremiah Barnes, who draws comparisons to Jeff Buckley and Gerard Way, leads the pack with an impressively consistent voice that boasts of purity and strength. Big Red, the bands powerhouse background vocalist and rhythm guitarists certainly stands out in personality and talent.

The bands rhythm section consists of driving force Jeremy Brown on drums, and Tyler Ricker both delivering strong rifts. These two powerful assets to the band blend the classical styles into modern pop punk/rock. Philip Revell, the bands left handed lead guitarist, brings about original riffs and eclectic style that allows Through A Glass to stand out among the rest.

The band's newest studio project, Tragedy vs. Comedy, (produced by Pete Thornton and Brooks Paschal) released on December 27, 2007 showed that the band had grown as true artists. This was the project that had the band on edge for so long. Even from the first listen, this band provides a fresh musical experience and almost always ensures a second listen.
