Fall of Man was founded by childhood friends Mikey Lane (drums) and Giovanni Barile (guitar).
Several months after Mikey and G started rehearsing, Ben Reiss (bassist) joined, and the band remained an all-instrumental act until 2012.
While in the process of searching for a frontman, Erica Barile jumped in until they could find the right fit. Shortly after, the band decided that she would be the lead singer.
FOM played their first show at the Orange County Grove and followed up with performances at The Whisky A Go Go, House Of Blues, and Canyon Club. They’ve opened for acts including Rhapsody of Fire, OTEP, and James Durbin.
Ben Reiss made his exit in 2013, and shortly after, Dan Scala became the band’s new bassist.
Fall of Man released their EP ‘Hallways and Doors’ on April 30, 2016. Their video “Lullaby” was released on October 31st 2016.
