About I Prevail

Hailing from Rochester, Michigan, I Prevail have carved an impressive niche in the contemporary rock and metal landscape since their formation in 2013. Their meteoric rise can be attributed to a fearless approach to genre-bending, masterfully fusing the aggressive intensity of metalcore with the catchy hooks and melodic sensibility of modern rock. This unique blend has resonated deeply with a diverse audience, allowing them to transcend traditional genre boundaries.

Their debut album, “Heart Vs. Mind” (2014), immediately showcased their potent formula, featuring breakout hits like “Blank Space” (a powerful cover that gained significant traction) and “Deep Ends.” However, it was their sophomore effort, “Trauma” (2019), that truly cemented their status as a force to be reckoned with. This critically acclaimed album spawned massive singles such as “Bow Down,” an aggressive, in-your-face anthem that became a staple of their live shows, and the emotionally charged “Breaking Down,” which demonstrated their capacity for vulnerability alongside their signature ferocity.

More recently, “True Power” (2022) continued this trajectory of success, delivering further anthems like “Body Bag” and “Self-Destruction.” Throughout their career, I Prevail have been lauded for their prolific output and their unwavering commitment to touring, building a formidable reputation for their high-energy, no-holds-barred live performances. Their ability to craft songs that are both mosh-pit ready and radio-friendly has earned them widespread appeal, making them a prominent voice in the modern rock scene. This London date at Alexandra Palace represents a significant milestone, highlighting their evolution and their enduring connection with a global fanbase hungry for their powerful sound.
