Following the path set by legends such as Godsmack, Avenged Sevenfold, Hinder, & Shinedown to name a few, Alabama 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) Nelson Rezek (guitar) Dick Black (bass) and Chris Espinales (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, another in 2012, 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 completed recording of their sophmore full-length album in October 2013 after traveling to Los Angeles to work with As I Lay Dying producer Jospeh McQueen. The title is currently being mixed in Las Vegas by 5 Finger Death Punch/Papa Roach producer Kane Churko. The band is currently preparing for the release as well as booking for their national tour supporting the new album.
BrokenRail has shared the stage with 12 Stones, Eye Empire, Taproot, Slave to the Day, Digital Summer, 3 Pill Morning, Weaving the Fate, Prospect Hill, Super Bob, Almost Kings, Shallow Side & more.
BrokenRail currently holds endorsements by JH Audio, 69 Chosen Apparel, & Curt Mangan Strings.
