Dead By Sunrise, formed in 2005, is an American rock supergroup led by the iconic Chester Bennington, best known as the frontman of Linkin Park. The band emerged from Bennington’s desire to explore darker and moodier musical themes that diverged from Linkin Park’s style. Their debut album, “Out of Ashes,” released on October 13, 2009, showcased a blend of alternative rock and electronic influences, receiving critical acclaim and solidifying their place in the rock genre.

The band’s formation included talented musicians such as Amir Derakh and Ryan Shuck, who contributed to the unique sound of Dead By Sunrise. The album featured hit singles like “Crawl Back In,” which reached the 11th spot on the Mainstream Rock chart, and “Let Down,” further establishing the band’s presence in the music industry. Their performances, including a notable tour alongside Linkin Park, highlighted their dynamic stage presence and musical synergy.

Despite a hiatus following the album’s release, Dead By Sunrise remained a significant part of Bennington’s legacy. The band was known for its emotional depth and powerful lyrics, resonating with fans worldwide. In 2011, they participated in charity events, showcasing their commitment to social causes and community engagement.

Tragically, the band faced a profound loss with the passing of Chester Bennington in 2017. However, the spirit of Dead By Sunrise continues to inspire, reminding fans of the band’s impactful contributions to rock music and the enduring legacy of its talented members.
