Biography:

Divine Sorrow started as an idea to explore the deeper side of no nonsense, no rules, hard rock music. Music without programmed hooks and meaningless lyrics. An idea that music could tell true stories that connect to its listeners.

In 2012, Divine Sorrow’s debut album “Tales of Descension”, took them from relative obscurity, to local and national radio airwaves with their release of “Everything”, a melodic dark horse that connected with thousands of fans. With this came many national awards including 2012 Charter Center Stage “Best Unsigned Band” along with glowing national and international reviews. It also earned them opening spots for bands such as Filter, Helmet, Days of the New, Boston, Kansas, April Wine, Sebastian Bach, The All American Rejects and Ace Frehley. The Riverfront Times Readers choice voted them “Best Rock Band” and “Best Rock Album of 2012”. But the band is best known for its incredible live performances, packed with powerful depth and delivery.

Divine Sorrow continued its journey in 2014 with the release of its second album “Seven Deadly”, another well received effort with continued radio and fan support. The band is currently finishing recording and mixing its third release “The Far Beneath”, which has a scheduled release in the fall of 2016.
