About Breaking Benjamin

Breaking Benjamin is one of the most commercially successful rock bands of the 21st century. Formed in 1999 by vocalist and guitarist Benjamin Burnley in the small city of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, the band has grown from regional act to global arena headliner through relentless touring, radio dominance, and a catalog of songs that connect on a deeply personal level with millions of listeners.

The numbers tell the story of a band at the peak of its powers: ten No. 1 rock radio singles, more than 8.5 billion combined streams worldwide, three platinum-certified albums, two gold albums, and four consecutive Top 5 Billboard 200 debuts – including a No. 1 for 2015's Dark Before Dawn. Signature hits like “The Diary of Jane,” “I Will Not Bow,” “So Cold,” “Breath,” “Failure,” and “Red Cold River” remain in heavy rotation on rock radio stations around the world. Follow the band on Instagram, X (Twitter), Facebook, and YouTube.

The “Awaken” Era: New Label, New Music, New Chapter

After two decades with Hollywood Records, Breaking Benjamin made a bold move in 2024 by signing with BMG. The label switch immediately produced results: “Awaken,” the band's first new single since 2020's Aurora compilation, dropped as a statement of intent. The track pairs vintage Breaking Benjamin heaviness with a fresh sense of urgency, signaling that a seventh studio album is on the way. For fans attending the 2026 tour, this means the possibility of hearing new songs performed live for the first time alongside the beloved hits.

Who Is Chevelle?

Chevelle is an alternative metal band formed in 1995 in Glendale Heights, Illinois by brothers Pete Loeffler (vocals, guitar) and Sam Loeffler (drums). Over the course of ten studio albums – most recently Bright as Blasphemy (August 2025) – they've accumulated over a dozen No. 1 rock radio singles and sold millions of records. Hits like “The Red,” “Send the Pain Below,” and “Vitamin R” cemented their place in the early-2000s rock canon. Their sound has grown heavier and more experimental over time while maintaining the punchy, melodic core that attracted fans from the start.

Who Is Starset?

Starset is a cinematic rock band from Columbus, Ohio, led by singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Dustin Bates. The project is built around an elaborate sci-fi narrative and features theatrical live performances with custom spacesuits and immersive visuals. Starset has released four albums and earned platinum certification for their debut single “My Demons.” Their unique fusion of hard rock, symphonic textures, and electronic production makes them one of the most distinctive acts in modern rock.
