BIOGRAPHY:
BURDEN OF A DAY will stake their reputation on their ability to perform. Playing out with bands like MORTAL TREASON, CHASING VICTORY, STAPLE, ANAM CARA, and FOREVER CHANGED to name a few, they've exhibited an energy and a presence seldom paralleled by even their more accomplished peers. Hailing from Sarasota, Florida - a retired people's town with a music scene as cold and unforgiving as the winters most move there to escape - they've managed to accumulate a following that keeps even their smallest shows well populated.
Formed in January of 2004, they've fast developed a natural
chemistry, allowing them to constantly evolve as musicians,
aiming beyond the simple, straight-forward songwriting that
plagues a lot of bands in their genre. Genre is a bit of
a tricky subject... When asked, they'd probably tell you
post hardcore/screamo or something along those lines. Although
watching them play, one might be prone to question the "Post" part
of that description. These boys are hard. Heartfelt and
melodic, but not afraid to throw in a breakdown or two...
which is more than occasionally. Influences include the
likes of THRICE, THE BLED, REFUSED, THURSDAY, BELOVED, ALL
THAT REMAINS, and many more. While staying true to the music
they love and grew up with, BURDEN
OF A DAY is
ready and able to progress forward and pass the message
on to the next generation.
