Alive Like Me

The band formed in 2013, when lead singer Jairus Kersey and bassist David Knox decided to give their adolescent dreams one more shot. They put out an ad on Craigslist searching for a drummer and guitarist to complete the band. The ad was soon answered by guitarist Dakota Dufloth and drummer Joel Riley. After meeting several times they all found that they had similar goals for their future and meshed well as a group. Dufloth and Riley made the move from Portland, Oregon to Eugene, Oregon and the band began working on songs and circulating them around to different labels. Eventually, the band signed with Rise Records.

On May 17, 2016 the band announced on their Facebook page that they're taking an indefinite hiatus.
