As December Falls

As December Falls formed in Birmingham, England around 2013, centered on the vocal duo of Natasha Von Pottelsberghe and James Armstrong. From the start the band aimed at a sound built for big stages — hook-dense pop-punk with the guitar weight of post-hardcore and the melodic ambition of the best British alternative rock. Birmingham has produced more than its share of influential rock acts, and As December Falls have continued that tradition by developing their sound with a focus on songs that work both on record and in a live room.

Their catalog includes tracks like "Broken" and "Running From A Dream," songs that showcase what the band does best: pairing Natasha's powerful, emotionally direct vocals with driving rhythm guitar, punchy percussion, and the kind of chorus that lodges immediately in memory. Fans of Paramore, New Found Glory, and All Time Low have found an easy on-ramp into As December Falls' music — the reference points are familiar, but the execution is distinctly their own.

Much of the band's growth has come through touring. They have logged extensive runs across the UK and Europe and have made repeated trips to North America as a support act, including previous dates alongside Black Veil Brides. That cross-Atlantic work has transformed them from a promising local act into a band with genuine international reach. Their 2026 appearance on the Black Veil Brides North American Tour continues that trajectory, bringing their hook-driven, high-energy set to audiences across the United States who may be encountering them for the first time — though likely not the last.
