Since their formation in 2013, Detroit-based band I Prevail has quickly garnered a global fan base with their potent mixture of aggressive rock, electronic arrangements, and seamless melodic elements. I Prevail took the world by storm with their recording of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space", which became iTunes' #1 Rock Single, and has sold over 200,000 copies. Their video for the track has had over 12 million YouTube views, and is continually in the top ten on Spotify's weekly chart of the most viral tracks globally. Their self-released EP Heart Vs. Mind hit #1 on the iTunes Rock Chart in December 2014, has sold over 30,000 copies, and is now available via Fearless Records.

A HANDFUL OF BANDS PLAY THE “DEVASTATING RIFFS AND CATCHY HOOKS” GAME, BUT FOR BEARTOOTH, THIS MUSIC IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. AS EASYGOING, CHARMING, AND OUTGOING AS THESE YOUNG MEN MAY APPEAR, THERE’S AN INNER TURMOIL CHURNING AWAY, ONLY SATIATED BY THE SAVAGE MUSIC THEY PLAY. SUICIDAL IDEATION, EMOTIONAL DESOLATION, AND DESPERATE DARK NIGHTS OF THE SOUL ARE CHEWED UP AND SPAT OUT IN SONG AFTER SONG; CATHARTIC SINGALONG ANTHEMS LIKE “FED UP,” “SICK OF ME,” AND “IN BETWEEN.”

LIKE NINE INCH NAILS OR TAME IMPALA, BEARTOOTH IS A ONE-MAN BAND IN THE STUDIO. IT BEGAN AS MUSICAL EXORCISM, CONCEIVED IN FRONTMAN CALEB SHOMO’S HOME RECORDING SANCTUARY, A MEANS TO TAME THE DEMONS OF DEBILITATING DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY HE’S SUFFERED SINCE CHILDHOOD. BEARTOOTH HARNESS THE SACRED AND PROFANE TO PURGE INNER DARKNESS WITH A DIZZYING LIGHT. BEARTOOTH’S EFFECT ON LISTENERS IS EVIDENT BY THEIR HIGHLY-ENGAGED AUDIENCE; INVITATIONS TO MAJOR FESTIVALS WORLD AND TOURS WITH SLIPKNOT, BRING ME THE HORIZON, AND A DAY TO REMEMBER; AND A RIAA-CERTIFIED GOLD SINGLE.

WHEN ROLLING STONE INTRODUCED BEARTOOTH AS ONE OF 10 NEW ARTISTS YOU NEED TO KNOW, THE SOUND WAS RIGHTLY DESCRIBED AS “LIKE A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, USUALLY WITH ENOUGH OPTIMISM TO PUSH THROUGH.” AS LONG AS THE DUELING DICHOTOMY OF MENTAL ANGUISH AND CREATIVE CATHARSIS REMAIN BOUND TOGETHER, CALEB SHOMO AND CREW WILL BE HERE TO OVERSEE THE SHOW. SO PLEASE, ENJOY THE RIDE.

Dorothy Martin is the firestarter behind Los Angeles-based rock band DOROTHY—a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter known for fusing raw emotion, spiritual grit, and thunderous rock ‘n’ roll. Born in Budapest and raised in San Diego, Dorothy exploded onto the scene with ROCKISDEAD in 2016, earning massive DSP traction with anthems like “Raise Hell” and “Wicked Ones”. With each release—28 Days in the Valley (2018) and Gifts From The Holy Ghost (2022)—she’s built a global fanbase drawn to her blend of heavy guitar, gospel undertones, and fearless storytelling.

Dorothy unleashes her most personal and genre-bending work yet with her fourth album, The Way. Produced by Scott Stevens (Halestorm, Shinedown), it blends hard rock with Southern soul and Americana spirit. Tracks like “MUD,” “Tombstone Town” (feat. Slash), and “Haunted House” explore themes of addiction, rebirth, revenge, and faith—all anchored by Dorothy’s powerhouse vocals.

A born-again Christian who found faith in rehab, Dorothy infuses hope into her music. Whether sharing the stage with legends like Scott Stapp or Nita Strauss, or leading her own sold-out tours, she’s rewriting the rules of modern rock—one song at a time.
