Demon Hunter at Vinyl Music Hall

Demon Hunter brings the There Was A Light Here Tour to Vinyl Music Hall with special guests Convictions and Cultist. The long-running force in American metal is known for pairing soaring melody with uncompromising heaviness, a blend that has earned praise for its endurance and impact. Their catalog includes fan-favorites such as “I Am a Stone,” “On My Side,” “The Last One Alive,” “Collapsing,” and “HEAVEN DON’T CRY,” songs that many listeners hold close for both celebratory moments and times of hardship. Across two decades, the band has weathered shifting trends while continuing to grow. They have toured in support of In Flames, co-headlined with Red, and helped bring attention to emerging acts like August Burns Red. Their sound draws on the velocity of thrash, the hooks of European melodeath, the shadowed atmosphere of gothic rock, the songwriting sensibility of dark-tinged pop, and the punch of Southern groove, fused into a distinct identity. The group’s history includes a 2002 debut, early lineup milestones for bassist Jonathan Dunn and drummer Tim “Yogi” Watts, and a run of notable releases and moments: Summer of Darkness reached MTV2 and the Resident Evil: Apocalypse soundtrack, Patrick Judge joined the guitar ranks and made his studio debut on The World is a Thorn, and True Defiance entered the Billboard Top 40 while solidifying the current lineup with guitarist Jeremiah Scott. Extremist delivered “The Last One Alive” to SiriusXM listeners and marked strong first-week sales, Outlive arrived to even greater numbers and appearances at major festivals, and the twin 2019 albums War and Peace debuted atop multiple Billboard charts. “On My Side” hit No. 1 on Music Choice and saw heavy play on SiriusXM’s Liquid Metal. Frontman Ryan Clark, a GRAMMY-nominated designer, directs the band’s visual presentation, and since Extremist, Scott has served as producer. In 2022 they launched their label, Weapons MFG, and introduced EXILE alongside a four-issue comic series, with “HEAVEN DON’T CRY” quickly becoming a standout track. The lineup features Ryan Clark on vocals, Patrick Judge and Jeremiah Scott on guitars, Jonathan Dunn on bass, and Tim “Yogi” Watts on drums. This is a general admission, standing room only, all ages show. Guests younger than 21 will be charged an additional $5 in cash at the door. Attendees under 16 must be with a ticketed adult guardian. Lineups and schedules may change. Orders suspected of resale may be canceled at the discretion of the venue or its ticketing partner. All sales are final, and there is no re-entry.
