With two self-produced EPs (Death Era and The Prologue), they’ve collaborated with Grammy-winning mastering engineer Ted Jensen (Bring Me the Horizon, Spiritbox, Kendrick Lamar), producer Cameron Mizell (Sleeping With Sirens, Memphis May Fire, Machine Gun Kelly), and acclaimed cellist Dave Eggar — whose credits span Coldplay, Evanescence, Avenged Sevenfold, John Legend, and Lewis Capaldi. Their latest single, Sin Eater (Acoustic) — produced by Matt Smile (John Legend, Lewis Capaldi, Bebe Rexha) — drops September 26, following the international success of Catch the Sunlight, their acoustic collaboration with Tokyo’s Sailing Before the Wind. On stage, POET has performed alongside Falling In Reverse, Wage War, Rob Zombie, Architects, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Until I Wake, and Keith Wallen (Breaking Benjamin) at major festivals including Upheaval Festival, Rock on the Hill, and Rock4Vets. For fans of Bad Omens, Sleep Token, Bring Me the Horizon, and I Prevail, POET delivers the sound, vision, and drive to match the biggest names in modern rock. --- The Almas are a hard rock, national recording artist hailing from New Munster, Wisconsin. The band is composed of Crystal Teigland [lead vocalist], Frank Slifka [founding member/lead guitarist], and Josh Sukowski [guitarist]. Through guitar driven licks, road dog attitudes, and a high energy, professional live performance, The Almas showcase the truest essence of Rock n' Roll with a modern twist! After working with Kile Odell [#1 Active Rock charting producer], The Almas are able to bring their vision to life on their newest EP ‘The Almas II’. In 2022 alone, the band has covered over 39,000 miles across the United States and just shy of 100 shows in a still recovering country. “The existence of this band has always been about helping each other” Frank explains, “whether it’s through inspiration, a positive message, or simply creating a fun, entertaining environment where people can get away from life’s problems.” Since forming in 2016, the band has released a self-titled EP and two full length albums 'Back To Bad' and ‘Truth Sells’. In promotion of their music, the band has performed with artists such as Saliva, Buckcherry, Royal Bliss, Plush, Saving Abel, Eva Under Fire, Wayland, and touring with Smile Empty Soul. The Almas are well known for their undying commitment to mental health awareness, including their support of numerous veteran events, specifically Rock 2 Stop 22. The Almas exists for its fans, because of its fans.
