Dayton OH, United States (2001 – present)
Having formed in the unlikely musical breeding ground of Dayton, Ohio in 2001, Hawthorne Heights learned early on that adaptation and diligence were the keys in the development of a successful career. Playing relentlessly from the start on self-booked tours across the country gave them some initial national exposure. But it wasn’t until they signed to Victory Records in late 2003 that Hawthorne Heights became the face of a whole new generation of music fans.
As one of the first bands to utilize social networking to gain a fan base, Hawthorne Heights developed a huge MySpace following that became a catalyst that would launch them from underground heroes to international superstars. As the voice of a genre, the band became regulars on MTV, their signature hit Ohio Is For Lovers the anthem for the new wave of “emo”. Their debut album The Silence In Black And White soon went Gold, and with their second album If Only You Were Lonely, the band scored Victory Records’ biggest ever debut, landing at #3 on the Billboard 200 in 2006. The band appeared on Conan O’Brien and Jimmy Kimmel, and became magazine cover stars, sending sales of The Silence… to Platinum status. It was the dream many bands hope for, but few seldom achieve, and Hawthorne Heights were living it.
Sadly, as with every success story, the good times came at a cost. In November 2007, whilst in the midst of legal disputes, tragedy struck within the Hawthorne Heights family.

Micah has always been able to scream. I'd assume he will be doing some screaming on the new CD.

New record is called Skeletons, early 2010 release, and has multiple screamers. Now I just wanna know if that means a few members of HH are going to be screaming, or if there'll be guest vocalists. Man I'm stoked.

They didn't get a new member, one of the current members has learnt to scream. They said they'd never replace Casey, but yes, there will be screaming on the new record.
