Hawthorne Heights

Hawthorne Heights is a pop punk/alternative rock band from Dayton, Ohio that catapulted to fame with the release of its first two Gold certified albums released consecutively in 2004 and 2006. Drawing on elements of punk's sub-genres, mainly screamo, Hawthorne Heights manages to combine these sounds with elements of pop, hard rock and emo to create a radio-friendly sound that has gotten fans of pop punk raving. Joining the growing pantheon pop punk acts cropping up across the US over the past few decades, Hawthorne Heights has more than proven itself to be a leader amongst them, based upon the band's considerably successful performance with its albums both commercially and critically.
