Surrender the Fall

Surrender the Fall was formed after guitarist Eddie Tyre, a lifelong resident of New Orleans, lost everything in Hurricane Katrina and co-guitarist Anthony Pitts gave up football because of a knee injury. Jared Cole's vocals and Devin Hightower on bass completed the group. Their debut album "Burn In The Spotlight"[http://hollywoodmusicmagazine.com/whoshot/surrender-the-fall/ "Surrender the Fall"]/ Hollywood Music Magazine, Shannon Lewis, 29 July 2013. {{Archive url|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130808080352/http://hollywoodmusicmagazine.com/whoshot/surrender-the-fall/|date=2013-08-08}} was released in 2012.[http://www.allaccess.com/rock/artist-info/q/id/3855/surrender-the-fall Rock Artist Info | New Information, Facts, and Bios About Rock Music Recording Artists]. {{Archive url|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190420051430/http://www.allaccess.com/rock/artist-info/q/id/3855/surrender-the-fall|date=2019-04-20}}
