I Prevail Part Ways with Founding Vocalist Brian Burkheiser
The post I Prevail Part Ways with Founding Vocalist Brian Burkheiser appeared first on Consequence.
I Prevail and vocalist Brian Burkheiser have mutually parted ways.
Burkheiser, who served as the metalcore band's clean-singing vocalist since its formation, had previously stepped away from the group to battle Eagle's syndrome, an uncommon disorder caused by an elongated or misshapen bone just below the ear, or an issue with a related ligament. The condition causes severe nerve-like pain in the jaw bone and joint, back of the throat, and base of the tongue, triggered by swallowing, moving the jaw, or turning the neck.

I Prevail have already been touring without Burkheiser for some time, with co-vocalist/growler Eric Vanlerberghe handling the lion's share of the singing, backed up by guitarist Dylan Bowman on additional vocals. The band officially confirmed the permanent split with Burkheiser via the following statement in an Instagram post on Thursday (May 15th):
'To Our I Prevail Family:
Today we share that we are mutually parting ways with Brian Burkheiser. This was a difficult decision, but we believe it is the right one and we are all grateful for the 10 epic years we shared together. We wish Brian nothing but success and happiness in his future endeavors.
Moving forward, Eric will continue to be the powerhouse frontman you've come to know and love. He'll be backed up live by Dylan who you've seen in this role many times over the years at the shows we've performed without Brian. Rest assured, we will continue to deliver the high-energy shows that we've made a pillar of our band, and we will continue to perform all the bangers from our catalogue. All scheduled shows will go on exactly as planned.
New music coming soon…
See you out there.
Eric, Steve, Dylan and Gabe'
