Las Vegas rockers Falling In Reverse, a brainchild of Ronnie Radke, emerged in 2008. Since their 2011 debut, they've released three albums.

While imprisoned for a parole violation related to a tragic event, Radke, then frontman for Escape The Fate, conceived the band. He contacted the original lineup from his cell, and upon release in 2010, collaborated with new members, having spent his time writing material.

The band's debut album, "The Drug In Me Is You," already in progress, launched in July 2011, reaching #19 on the Billboard 200. Extensive touring followed. In 2013, "Fashionably Late" pushed boundaries, incorporating hip-hop and pop elements. While Radke, aka "Rappin' Ronnie," garners strong reactions, his undeniable ability to captivate ensures Falling In Reverse remain a band to watch.
Fan reviews:

Can not say enough about Ronnie and the rest of Falling in Reverse! Just saw them and man what a show! They put on one of the best performances I've ever seen! Sounds just as good if not better in person. In my opinion even though the other bands did a great job FiR stole the show! Much love, and can't wait to see them again. Definitely buying tickets anytime they are close!

Absolutely mind blowing! Amazing show, Ronnie brings it with so much talent I would see falling in reverse over and over again, totally rocked!

Great live show! This was my first time seeing Falling in Reverse live. I was planning to see them open for Disturbed a year or so ago but they were removed from the bill. They performed a variety of their songs which was great!

Hi energy, great songs! We love their songs, how he changes his voice throughout. One of our favorite bands of the last 10 years, with some of my favorite songs of all time. They always play a short set, only 11 songs in about 50 min. This was a one off show so they didn't bring screens where they play videos with the songs, but Ronnie was high energy, moving, pumping up the crowd. FIR is a band I wouldn't pass on, especially on a headline tour with full stage setup.
