Skytown Riot

It's been a hardscrabble climb for Nashville modern rockers Skytown Riot, and while the ladder to success seems to stretch into an infinite sky sometimes, vocalist/guitarist Van Gallik, bassist Jason Fruchey, and drummer Scott Blasko have settled in for the long haul. After the group’s 2013 release “Soul or System” gained accolades in Alternative Press and launched the band on a country-wide tour, the trio returned in 2017 with their first full-length record, Alive in the Fire. "You can't save this," Gallik pleads on "In Dissolution,”---- but the trio isn't trying to save modern rock. They're the sentries on the wall, lighting signal pyres to let all those who see it burn know that it's very much alive.”
