ARCHERS THE TEMPORARY HIGH TOUR PART 2
with NERV, OF VIRTUE, DEAD EYES
ARCHERS combine massive melodies and crushing heaviness with unrivaled passion and precision. The music of the Midwestern quartet connects deeply via confessional tales of broken hearts and mental anguish, building an intimate sense of community with outsiders from all corners of the world.
After years of honing their craft on the road, at major rock festivals and touring alongside bands such as Asking Alexandria, Catch Your Breath, From Ashes to New, Magnolia Park and Imminence, the band has developed a knack for delivering high octane, head turning performances that resonate with their fans while continuing to win over a dedicated army of new fans with each performance.
The Wisconsin band’s momentum is a testament to the strength of its soaring songs and magnetic live performances. Its fourth EP, Temporary High, was produced by Matt Good (Hollywood Undead, Sleeping With Sirens) and blends energetic pop and visceral metalcore into an evocative sound.
Engaging frontman Nathanael Pulley and dynamic guitarist Ben Koehler first came together under the Archers banner in 2015, with the later addition of funk and R&B-loving bassist and vocalist Oscar Porter and hard rock-weaned drummer Grayson Mesarosh crystalizing the band’s definitive line-up. Each of the four came into heavy music via different gateways, from a mixture of metalcore and melodic rock bands as diverse as the Vans Warped Tour line-up, from pop-punk hooks to devastating breakdowns.
Determination, passion, and authenticity are the beating heart of Archers. Even as Archers’ mission expands worldwide, the quartet is determined to remain true to themselves. This is evident to their most diehard fans, and it is precisely why what they are doing connects so profoundly.
ABOUT OF VIRTUE
Fear of failure lives deep in many of us, however, the ability to overcome is what defines us.
Lansing, MI-based Of Virtue, best known for their dynamic evolution and persistent trajectory, have planted their flag in over 35 countries across the globe thanks to a loyal fanbase who resonate with their authenticity, both seen and heard throughout their art. Having shared stages with giants such as Three Days Grace, The Ghost Inside, Imminence and Being As An Ocean, the band continues to prove that they have dedicated their blood, sweat and tears to be heard. It’s through their music that melodic, catchy, and ethereal elements coalesce with brooding, heavy guitar riffs from Damon Tate and Michael Valadez to be complemented by the multifaceted vocal stylings of Tyler Ennis and Tate himself. The rhythm section then rages, anchored by Ryan Trinh who adds a relentless pulse on drums.
Their hard work and consistency continues to pay off with impressive milestones such as amassing over 50 million catalog streams and more than 4 million music video views in less than 5 years alongside charting on Billboard and earning Top 50 Mediabase US radioplay spots. Their latest record, Omen, released October 2024, has quickly become a fan-favorite – selling out of multiple vinyl variants and thousands of CD copies, emphasizing their growing influence and dedicated audience. Omen is home to a variety of vulnerabilities where Ennis and Tate discuss addiction, self-destruction, relationships with both lovers and families going awry, and beyond. Each song is like looking at a scar, learning the story behind the pain.
Once dismissed, Of Virtue‘s unwavering authenticity and belief in themselves continues to transform them from the underdog to the band you can’t miss.
