From Ashes To New
The Union — Salt Lake City, UT

From Ashes To New emerged from Lancaster, Pennsylvania as a hard rock outfit that trades in heavy guitars and visceral lyrics about struggle and recovery. The band built a following through relentless touring and a sound that sits somewhere between aggressive alternative metal and accessible hard rock. Songs like 'Madness' and 'Lost It All' became their calling cards, characterized by dynamic shifts between crushing riffs and more melodic moments where frontman Matt Brandyberry's voice carries the emotional weight. They've carved out a niche in the post-grunge alternative metal space without chasing trends, instead focusing on the kind of straightforward songwriting about personal turmoil and resilience that resonates with people who've felt genuinely stuck. Their name itself speaks to the thematic through-line of their work—reinvention born from difficulty.

Their shows hit hard and fast. Brandyberry works the crowd with genuine intensity rather than spectacle, and people respond by matching that energy. Mosh pits form quickly and maintain that kind of purposeful chaos their music demands. They're tight, they don't waste time, and the room feels like it matters to them.

Known for Madness, Broken Hands, Lost It All, Don't Forget, Panic

From Ashes To New has maintained a steady presence in Salt Lake City's hard rock circuit. Their June 2024 stop at The Depot showcased the band's knack for building momentum through their set—opening with "Armageddon" and letting the intensity breathe through mid-set cuts like "Scars That I'm Hiding" and "Hate Me Too" before closing with "Through It All." The setlist hit the expected marks with "Dead to Me" and "Broken," but it was the deeper material that stuck: "Monster in Me" and "Panic" particularly landed, the kind of songs that remind you these guys have been refining their craft for years. Sixteen songs in, they'd earned the room.

Salt Lake City's hard rock and metal community may be smaller than coastal hubs, but it's loyal and engaged. The Depot remains one of the few venues willing to book mid-tier rock acts consistently, which means bands like From Ashes To New find receptive ears here. The local scene leans heavy on the heavier end of alternative rock, with fans who appreciate both radio-friendly hooks and the grittier, more aggressive material that defines modern hard rock.

Stay in the Avenues neighborhood—tree-lined streets with actual character, close enough to downtown but removed from the noise. For dinner, Lazy Dog in Sugar House serves exceptional Colorado lamb and maintains a wine list that doesn't insult your intelligence. Spend an afternoon at the Natural History Museum of Utah in Red Butte Canyon; the building itself is architecturally stunning and the collection gives real context to the landscape you're actually standing in. The city's proximity to actual mountains matters when you've got downtime.
