Hawthorne Heights is an American rock band from Dayton, Ohio that formed in 2001. Their lineup currently consists of JT Woodruff (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Micah Carli (lead guitar, unclean vocals), Matt Ridenour (bass guitar, backing vocals), Mark McMillon (rhythm guitar, backing vocals), and Chris Popadak (drummer).
The band gained success with their first two albums, The Silence in Black and White (2004) and If Only You Were Lonely (2006). Both of the albums were certified gold. Their 2006 album peaked at number one on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart, and number three on the Billboard 200 chart. They are well known for their single “Saying Sorry,” which achieved gold status, and peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart.
The band is often referred to as hard rock and screamo due to their harder guitar riffs and occasional use of unclean vocals. The band is often described as post-hardcore because this genre encompasses a wide range of musical styles, making it a general enough term to be applied to Hawthorne Heights’ diverse style.
