Biography

Hailing from a small town in northern Indiana, Jeff Rains understands the meaning of hard work, struggles, and life’s challenges. The talented artist is driven, serious, and committed to his beautiful young family and his career. Featuring Andy Ryan on drums, Matt Hopkins on bass, and Jason Anderson on guitar, Rains commands the stage with a powerful sound and raw emotion that draws the audience in from the first phrase. Rains is a band for the people, and it’s about time. People need a band to get behind and a band to believe in; they need a band that can make them proud. Nothing trendy – something real. Stories, the debut album from Rains, offers a window into the heart and soul of “the American Dream.” The expressive lyrics reveal that Jeff Rains is wise beyond his years, a keen observer of life and human behavior. The first single, “Liar”, was a Top 15 hit on SiriusXM Octane, and the second single, “Look In My Eyes”, will be hitting radio in mid-September.

They are recording their second album and will be re-leased sometime early in 2013 check out their webside for more details http://www.rainsmusic.com/

    In a genre that's flooded with raspy yelling, Rain's vocals are definitely refreshing. Reminds me a lot of Three Days Grace, but much more smooth. I definitely enjoyed their album. They might sound rather generic, but that doesn't mean they're bad.

    @yearssomuch I find it odd(and humorous) that you spend as much time as you do on this page given your absolute hatred for my band. I also find it odd that we are 39th on your top played list, right after Pink Floyd. Obviously your life is so completely fucking pointless that you have absolutely nothing better to do than sit in your moms basement looking at porn, and posting your bullshit anti-Rains rants on this page. Either way it keeps our page views going up so keep it coming and i'll keep writing my "shit lyrics"!

    Here's a piece of information for your future insulting endeavors.. calling everyone 'Dick something' doesn't work all the time, if ever at all.. kind of solidifies that 12 year old theory I had about previous users. But hey, thanks for coming in and helping me out.

    @runeantonsen: AHAHAHAHAHA. 'Beautifully crafted'? No, just.. no. And you saying any song they've ever written has any sort of 'varied use of vocals' just shows that you know nothing. You should never recommend music, to anyone. Ever.

    And 'Rains' just dig deep inside human hearts'? Hahaha, you must be incredibly sensitive for shit lyrics to inspire you in any way.. let me guess, Nickelback has a similar effect on you? Again, only children listen to this crap, or adults with the mentality of children. This isn't decent even by a long shot. It's uninspired, mediocre, and a rip-off. And you suck for liking it.

    I mean, "I am contaminated with the retardedness of Yearssomuch?" What, are you 12 years old? Well, there's a good chance you are if you like this garbage. Get mad.

    These reactions are nothing short of priceless. So gullible.

    I judge music by how it moves me - if that makes the band great or not so be it - I don't care. The Stories album moves me like few records have done this year. It's soothing and mellow, and the melodies sit well on top of the arrangement. Original? Hardly. Beautifully crafted? Absolutely. And varied, just listen to the use of vocals in the verse of Liar. It also seems like they've put some energy into the dramaturgy of the record as each song rise and fall in a dreamy landscape as you proceed through the record. Recommended!
