Backstory:

Forked Chapter was born in the bustling grit of Detroit, Michigan, in 2015. Five childhood friends, Jake Holman (lead vocals), Ryan Decker (lead guitar), Zachary Arnold (bass), Dylan O’Brien (drums), and Grace ‘Gypsy’ Oxford (keyboards), who used to play gigs in their parents’ garages, decided to unite their musical talents and form a band. Their mutual love for music and shared hardship growing up in a city on the verge of bankruptcy bonded these five souls together. Their journey has been a testament to their resilience and passion.

Starting out as a garage band, Forked Chapter quickly gained popularity in their local music scene due to their soul-stirring lyrics and unique sound. Their rise to fame was unprecedented when their demo got into the hands of a record executive during a music festival in Nashville. Since then, their music has resonated with fans all over the world, making Forked Chapter one of the most promising bands of this generation.

Favorite Fan Testimonial:

Our favorite fan is a woman named Melissa from Boston, who has been with us since our garage band days. She’s attended every single one of our shows within a 200-mile radius of her home. Here’s what she says about us:

“Forked Chapter is not just a band to me, they’re a lifeline. Their music speaks to my soul, it’s raw and real. It’s like they’ve somehow encapsulated my life experiences into their lyrics. “Echoes of Yesterday” helped me move on from a painful past. I felt every word, every chord, and it was therapeutic. They are more than my favorite band, they’re my saviors.”
