With a combination of dynamic instrumentation, cathartic lyrics, and fierce live shows, The Fallen One has taken the DC music scene by storm. Influenced by a diverse array of bands like Hum, At the Drive In, PJ Harvey, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Murder City Devils, and Failure, The Fallen One brings textured, lush guitar melodies in combination with a thick, aggressive, distorted sound, powerful vocals, and a driving rhythm section.
The Fallen One began in November of 2002. Rachael and Odell were going to see a show, and a mutual friend mentioned to Rachael that Odell was a drummer looking for a band. They struck up a conversation and began writing songs together. They decided that they wanted a more layered sound, so they decided to find another guitarist along with a bass player. They put out an ad, and Chris answered it. He came over to audition, and thought Rachael and Odell were pretty weird. Several drinks later, he decided to stick around anyway.
After a rough time finding a permanent bass player, they decided to stay a three piece. Since the band’s formation, The Fallen One has played several venues, including the Velvet Lounge, The Blue Nile, and the Black Cat in DC, Hiaasmen’s in Maryland, The Royal Lee in Virginia, The Continental and the C-note in New York. The band has also shared the stage with many talented bands, including: Jessenk, Koshari, Alcian Blue, Misalaneeosseeds, The Chance, Chrysalis, Viki Nova, The Kudzu Wish, Cinemechanica, Lull, Run Silent Run Deep, and The Insurrection among others.
