Free Throw
Nashville emo-punk outfit Free Throw established themselves in the mid-2010s with a rugged but deeply melodic sound. On albums like 2017's Bear Your Mind and 2021's Piecing It Together, the quintet expanded on their energetic sound while building a significant national fan base.
Free Throw formed in 2012 and quickly become a fixture of Nashville's D.I.Y. circuit of basement and house shows. Early EPs Free Throw and Lavender Town revealed a band with a strong melodic sense and a gritty catharsis that eventually earned them a spot on Count Your Lucky Stars' label roster. The five-piece lineup of Cory Castro (vocals, guitar), Jake Hughes (guitar, vocals), Lawrence Warner (guitar), Justin Castro (bass), and Zach Hall (drums) made their label debut with These Days Are Gone, the band's first LP. The album saw them break into the national touring scene, as they racked up shows with Sorority Noise, Tiny Moving Parts, and other like-minded bands. With Kevin Garcia replacing Hall on drums, they entered the studio with producer Brett Romnes (I Am the Avalanche, Sorority Noise) and recorded their follow-up LP.
Released in May 2017, Bear Your Mind was Free Throw's first release for New York label Triple Crown Records. A 2018 EP, Missing Pieces, offered reworked acoustic version of several tracks from Bear Your Mind as well as a cover of the Chance the Rapper cut "Same Drugs." Free Throw later returned to full-electric form on 2019's What's Past Is Prologue, followed two years later by their fourth album Piecing It Together.
